Thanks for sharing..  Oh and great work!

Dang Mike you have been a busy tier. Nice looking flies. I wonder if the were tied down to a size 12-14 what kind of fish one would pull in.



Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time.
On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words,
and some of the words are theirs.

Believe I can cover that one Dave. Rainbows, Browns, & Brookies. But for the most part I use size 8 and size 10 Mr. Green

Wow Mike that's some serious tying .  Stephen has mentioned to me that buckbugs catch trout . I wish I were closer to you guys so you could teach me to tie them puppies. I really want to fish one in a deep pool I know some hog trout might be willing to engulf
