[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

2012-01-27 Thread Jimmy D. Moore
By the time I had turned thirty, I'd realized two important things. 
One, I had to fish. Two, I had to work for a living.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

2012-01-27 Thread Jimmy D. Moore
Handling a big trout in swift water is akin to flying a kite on a 
blustery day. The
more line you let out, the more trouble you're going to have getting it 
back. ©

[VFB] FISHING POEM

2012-01-27 Thread Jimmy D. Moore

Sorry for all the intrusions (tests) this morning. Hopefully
you'll enjoy my little poem. JIMMY D

THE PURIST 


I fish with a Pflueger Pack Rod. He fishes with a Sage or a Scott.
Doesn t make any difference to the fish that we caught.
Fish don t care what rod we use and faced with a choice
they d probably not choose.

The  purist  fishes a Betty McNall or other perfect fly.
I fish with a Black Ant or Elk Hair Caddis
cause they re so easy to tie.

Expand your horizons, that s where it s at ,
he says as he ties on a number 16 Claret Gnat.
Don t be fishing those trash flies, my boy.
Why don t you try a Ferret Faced Rob Roy. 


To go along with his game, I say I might try a
Chauncey, or a Colorado King, or maybe a
Coachman with the Royal Fan Wing.
He s thinking,  Another purist I ve found ,
when I mention that I love the Royal Blue Crown.

He raises his eyebrows as he ponders all that.
Then he ties on a pretty Brass Hat. I say a Royal
Cubbage is also good, but sometimes I prefer a
Fire Coachman Trude.

He says to himself,  A purist for sure, boy this is
great.  But when I tie on a Chernobyl Foam Ant,
we both know he s taken my bait.  A foam ant! 
Why would a purist like you stoop to something

as trashy as that?  he says as he removes his
tattered old hat.

I say with an evil glint in my eyes,  Gotcha, my Friend.
I m not a purist. I ll just fish my ants and Little foam flies.
You fish your classics and I ll fish my trash and when the
end of the day comes we ll see who was brash. 


Jimmy D. Moore
Woodway, Texas
© October 5, 2001

NOTE: The Ferret Faced Rob Roy and Royal Blue Crown are flies originated 
and first tied by Jimmy D. Moore.

Re: [VFB] Got my new rod!

2012-01-27 Thread Jimmy D. Moore
DonO, for my retirement gift, my board gave me a 7 ft Orvis Penns Creek 
4 wt bamboo. Companion reel is an Orvis CFO II.  I have a dozen  or so 
fly reels, including a Tibor light Tail Water CL.  Choosing between it 
and the CFO is a hard call but my first choice on my little bamboo is 
the CFO. Together they are a smooth working combo.


JIMMY D

Don Ordes wrote:

 
Just a little bragging- but fishing related.
 
I got my new bamboo fly rod late last week, and from none other than 
Tony Spezio himself.  Who-h!  It's really special to me, and I 
know how much effort went into it and how long it took because Tony 
has been recovering from some problems the whole time he was building 
it.  He sent me photos of the progress all along the way, and it was 
amazing to see all the techniques and his mastery of the craft.
 
I don't have to tell you how well the rod is crafted, as it's from a 
Hall of Fame Catskill Bamboo Rod-builder!  Trust me, it is gorgeous- 
not overstated, just a classic beauty.  But I did ask him for a spiral 
twist rod, and it worked out perfect.  It has a lot of back-bone for 
punching flies into the Wyoming wind.  And it has one of my #32s glued 
into the wraps at the handle, and my name on it, plus his of course, 
and a serial #.
 
He made me promise to fish it, so it will be a dry-fly only rod for 
those perfect sunny afternoons on Wyoming trout streams.  No wet-fly 
beads will be dinging this baby.
 
Now I need a classic reel to match such a rod, and the perfect dry fly 
5 wt. flyline.  Should I look for a light weight antique reel worthy 
of this reel seat?  Any ideas?  Are lines for bamboo rods different 
than lines for graphite rods?  Underweight a line size?  Overweight a 
size?  Is there a bamboo taper dry-fly line?
 
And then I need an early spring and some hatches. 
 
DonO

[VFB] Current tying - photos

2012-01-27 Thread Wes Wada
Hi VFB,

I am preparing sample teaching flies for a class I am leading at next
week's Central Oregon Flyfishers Winter Fly Tying series.  The group meets
weekly, numbering 15-25 participants each session. Members pay just $5, and
most materials are supplied for the three hour class.  Noted area fly tyers
teach one each of the weekly sessions.

The basic pattern was originated by British Columbia tyer Phil Rowley.  The
first fly visible in the Picasa gallery is closest to the original, though
still a variant.

In the others, the pattern has been converted to a system fly with
different colors of Mohair yarn, sparkle dubbing, dyed Pheasant Rump, and
dyed Peacock sword and herl.

The fly slims down into a leech shape when wet, and mimics leeches,
dragonfly nymphs and minnows.  The pattern caught my second largest Eastern
Brook trout to date, a 17-1/2 beauty.

Re: [VFB] RE: Other types of fishing besides fly fishing and how much gear do you still have?

Flies aren't always the best way to approach a fish.  I'm probably 80-20 
flies.  Deep water, heavy surf, bait, winds are just some of the reasons 
to slide to the darkside.

Hi All;

Just curious do most people in this group use only fly fishing gear? 
If your a convert, did you keep your other gear or dispose of it? I 
just started selling off my baitcasting gear but will probably keep 
some of it.

RE: [VFB] RE: Other types of fishing besides fly fishing and how much gear do you still have?

2012-01-27 Thread J Balmer
I go on a long weekend trip w/ a couple of friends of mine each spring 
fall,  w/ three people in a boat, shorter rods are required.  I use a
baitcasting reel to troll crankbaits  an ultralight rig for inline spinners
on 4 lb mono for those trips, otherwise I use fly gear. I've kept all my
standard fly fishing gear for friends  kids to use where fly rods are
difficult to cast.

When I started flyfishing I never wanted to go back so all of mine is gone.
