I got the initial proof/draft DVD for the video tying sequences from the video-man. I stuck it in the TV and Cheryl sat down to watch it with me. She was amazed. She's seen me demo-ing the rope-dub for the last 8 years, but she said the DVD was even better than seeing me tie in person (that's hard to believe, since I'm so good-lookin'). She was also amazed at how many tying techniques were included, telling me that I could make 3 DVDs with that much information. I told her I was already working on DVD #2 and it had a lot more advanced applications. From my standpoint it looked pretty good, but needs a lot more editing and photo inserts. How many tying sequences are there? 24 that I counted, not including the talking and fly demo sections, and it doesn't include the fishing sequence up front or the credits and ad pages at the back. The rope-dub is so quick, and I'm only tying the tail ends (not the finished pattern), that the tying sequences don't take very long at all. There's a lot for someone to work on, but the tying sequences coupled with various photos should allow pausing and rewinding so that tough parts can be reviewed. Only problem I could see was that my big 'ol ball-park frankfingers were getting in the way all the time. We used 2 camera angles, so hopefully we can get good views of all ties. I cancelled my trip to Idaho this week-end because of the storm moving in- supposed to be 2 to 4 feet of snow up in the western mountains (Jackon/Wilson areas) so the passes may get closed (our route). I'll have to wait for a later date to meet up with Jack Dennis to review it with him. From my first view, I am very satisfied and I'm looking forward to getting a couple more initial reviews from seasoned tiers. If you have any questions, please fire away.

Some how my Main Identity was being used for my User Name phxflytyer.
When I started Outlook Express it used my phxflytyer name to open it up.
I went in and made a new phxflytyer user name.
Now I actually have four identitys.
I use phxflytyer for this list, and my Alan Di Somma for all my family business.
I also have another name I use for business stuff.
I do not use the Main Identity for anything.
Does that make sense?

Thanks Tony. It has been a long time since I have been able to post to the list.
I had to change some settings in my Outlook Express in order to be able to post.
It looks like I will be going to Alaska in Sept. to do some FF for trout and
Grayling.
It also appears that I may be able to fish for Salmon also.
I have to get busy learing to tie all over again.
I haven't tied much since the Sow Bug , I think it was in 2003 or 2004. Can't
remember.
Do you have any good Salmon recipies?
Thank you,

One strand is just plain MoHair which is the easy part to pick out..the other strand is a Sparkle kinna yarn..you can use the stuff singlely with either strandor together. In this case i used them together..hope you like it. i'll get Misa to take a good pic when we get back from Missouri. We're hittin' the road right now.

[VFB] Re: DVD is here- payment
Hi Ashley, I don't know how I'm going to do that yet. I don't have Paypal on my site, but I may get it if I need it. I do have a few shops interested in carrying the DVD, who have extensive website programs with payment provisions, shipping, everything. So I may link my site to those if they want to pay with Paypal. Just not sure yet, but it won't be a problem anywhichway. I have made plans with the DVD producer to have the latest in copy-protect software installed, so that the DVD can't be pirated (unless it's a real hacker). Not much motivation to spend $2 grand on a DVD to find it downloadable off of the internet a month after release. If I lose my butt on #1, that one will be the last of the series, and it'd be a shame, because Rope-dub #2 and the mouse videos will be just killer. I do intend to keep the price down now so that there shouldn't be great motivation to pirate it.

[VFB] Re: DVD is here
Don, I was up in Andy's room the other day and he still has that Adams you tied for him in that hat he was wearing. I just got off the phone with him and he gets back from the sandbox for the end of this tour in 27 days. He's quite a bit taller and stronger than when you saw him last. We're all looking forward to getting some fishing in. I did want to tell you that I teach the rope dub method to our novice tying class that our club puts on and also refer them to Byard's site for the instruction. This DVD should help us do a better job with the learning curve for beginners and with veteran tyers thinking about what fun materials they can dub with. --- On Thu, 4/16/09, DonO f...@tribcsp.com wrote: From: DonO f...@tribcsp.com Subject: [VFB] Re: DVD is here To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Date: Thursday, April 16, 2009, 1:47 PM Mike, I've created a DVD Order folder and am putting all emails of those interested and of those ordering into it.

Actually, if you read what Don said (bottom paragraph), it'll be in the DVD. Don's put WAY too much work and creativity into this to be giving it away. So do like me and buy one of his DVD's. Allan I too would like to try to tie that fly if you would be willing to give up the pattern? John Bennett Lifetime Products, Inc.

She was also amazed at how many tying techniques were included, telling me that I could make 3 DVDs with that much information. I told her I was already working on DVD #2 and it had a lot more advanced applications. From my standpoint it looked pretty good, but needs a lot more editing and photo inserts. How many tying sequences are there? 24 that I counted, not including the talking and fly demo sections, and it doesn't include the fishing sequence up front or the credits and ad pages at the back. The rope-dub is so quick, and I'm only tying the tail ends (not the finished pattern), that the tying sequences don't take very long at all. There's a lot for someone to work on, but the tying sequences coupled with various photos should allow pausing and rewinding so that tough parts can be reviewed. Only problem I could see was that my big 'ol ball-park frankfingers were getting in the way all the time. We used 2 camera angles, so hopefully we can get good views of all ties. I cancelled my trip to Idaho this week-end because of the storm moving in- supposed to be 2 to 4 feet of snow up in the western mountains (Jackon/Wilson areas) so the passes may get closed (our route).
