[VFB] Large attachments...
I have a suggestion for sharing large pictures. Why not set up a shared Photobucket account for the group, for sharing pictures, larger or many, and then post the links in the VFB emails? Today I missed an email from my internet distributor when a little over 30Mb of attached pictures suddenly filled up the hole I only 30 minutes earlier had made to ensure there was space for it. Sending out heavy attachments over an email group is not a good idea. Everyone don't have the same resources. Well, here's a Photobucket account that everyone here can use. Easy peasy to upload, drag and drop, one at a time or MANY at a time. Upload them in the main album or make your own folder (and maybe sub-folders). Click on the link beside the picture and the link is automatically copied - ready to be pasted in an email. Setup today is public, no login required to view. Privacy settings can be changed, for the whole account or for individual folders. Login details (for posting) is hard to forget: Username: virtualflybox Password: virtualflybox http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr20/virtualflybox/vfb_zpsztrvlqcw.jpg Use it or forget it. It's there and it's yours, so your choice... /Nick -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.

Re: [VFB] Real Neat app.....OFF TOPIC
I can't see one single drawback in this. As it's using its compass, GPS, accelerometer and gyroscope, you don't need clear nights (or nights for that matter). You don't even have to go outside.

[VFB] Back in biz...
Chili Pepper... the chosen one. Chosen to put an end to my break - the break that was planned to be a year but became much longer than that. I felt like a beginner again. The fingers didn't move like they were automated anymore. It wasn't like riding a bicycle... once it's there, then it stays there. It was more like a long row of how did I do that and where did I have those. I guess I have to visit my homepage and the step-by-steps I once made... and of course re-learn where my materials are stored. But now I'm finally back in the tying chair. It did feel great to rest my hand on the Dyna-King again. Now I'm going back for another challenge... a Foam Ant or a Pheasant Tail Nymph.

[VFB] Test
A little test here. I'm in a disagreement with the default mail app in my Samsung tablet. When I write the word 'today' in a vfb-mail it turns into a link, both in the mail that goes into the Sent folder and in the mail I get back. Clicking on it then launches the default calendar app and creates a new post there... today of course, no matter how old the mail is. Question: Does the word 'today' in my mails LOOK like a link to you? Test: I have only seen it in mails from myself (and in mails where l'm quoted), but on the other hand I haven't yet found a mail with the word 'today' written by someone else. So if a couple of others could send a mail with the word 'today' in, I would be grateful. PS. Do not REPLY to this one. Just create an entirely new mail.

Re: [VFB] Mustad size 32
When I tied in Netherlands I met Ole Bjerke who later sent me a few of the 277's. I have tied a couple of flies on them that I show when I'm demo tying.

However, before I took them to a show for the first time l made them easier to recover by completing each thread end with a two-colored ball of egg yarn.

But now I get other invitations now and then... and the money in one Sowbug trip would probably cover two or three in Europe, maybe five Swedish ones.

To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Date: Tuesday, July 17, 2012, 9:32 AM Last week I tried out a new fly that I (just because it was so ugly) bought earlier this summer in a fly shop up north. As ugly as it was, it turned out to be quite effective. When everything else I tried (including the Chili Pepper) struck out, this one seemed to work. But a couple of days ago, when Teresa and the girls were with me, I lost one in a tree almost immediately after losing the first fish. I didn't want to risk losing the second (last) one before I had copied it, so I chose something else that had a little of the same features - very visible, very slowly sinking... and ugliness: a white bugger with a bunch of round rubber legs for tail. MAN was that a good choice!!! It turned out to be a fish magnet. Before they had even left I had lost another fish... and at the end of the day I had caught three, lost another two, and missed three or four takes (and naturally lost the two white flies). Considering that I was only there for three hours (and that also other club members say that it seems slow there now)... it was something out of the ordinary. If it wasn't the lake that suddenly had a very good day, this will probably be my new goto fly. (Sorry Tony... the Chili Pepper is out. LOL) I'm quite sure I got these rubber tailed buggers from someone at the VFB, two black and two white (unfortunately now lost), either as bonus flies in a swap or along with one of the kick off boxes which were sent to me when I first got stuck in here. They have been sitting untouched in my flybox for quite a while so I can't remember which. Last night I was going to tie up more of the white ones but even though I thought that the thinnest rubber legs I had were very thin... these ones were even thinner. I took a picture for comparison: The left fly is the original black version. The right fly is my (as it turned out: fat tailed) test replica... with Dan Bailey's rubber legs size Small. Anyone who recognizes this fly and can tell me what kind of rubber legs they are? Pictures 'fly.jpg' and 'tails.jpg' attached.

Re: [VFB] Help with fly / rubber legs...
I might have come up with something now. To begin with, it wasn't Dan Bailey's like I first said. I confused it thanks to that I at the same time was looking through bags of Dan Bailey's long flash chenille, to that other ugly fly I was going to replicate. The rubber leg bag says 'Wag's Fly Tying Materials'... and on the back the address to 'The Fly Den' (Lewistown, ID). The back of the label shows a range of four sizes (large, medium, small, fine), of which I have the small one. This 'Fine' is a size I'm curious about. I can't find Wag's or The Fly Den anywhere. But another one who has a size 'Fine' is Hareline... and at J Stockard it's described as about 1/2 mm. Sounds about right (even though I know that little means much here). So it might be worth a shot. If it's what I want, then good. If it's the same about 1/2 mm as my 'Small' one... well, at least I'll have a spare.

Re: [VFB] Help with fly / rubber legs...
I actually sat in the fly-tying room experimenting with substitutes when I got this mail. One of them also was the standard size Legs Alive, by picking out the really small ones from the hank (the sizes aren't very consistent)... but they weren't really the same thing. I do love those Legs Alive and often prefer them before round rubber legs.

[VFB] Just gave my girls a taste...
The best day at the lake so far. A day that showed my little girls that (quote Teresa) This is why pappa think fishing is so fun. After taking me to the lake Teresa and the girls followed me down to the water to look for a while. I was preparing the rod when a fish showed itself just outside were we stood, maybe 5 feet out in the water. I rushed to tie a fly on and carefully went down to the water line. 3-4 short (6 feet + leader) casts later I stood there with a jumping fish in the other end of the line. GRRREAT!!! They had seen the two last steps - into the freezer... and onto the table. Finally I got the chance to show them the first steps too... 'Look at the fish out there!'... 'It took!'... 'Oh MAN is he a fighter!!!'... and a few jumps later it was gone. Oh well, at least I could show them that nasty side step too... that it's not caught until it's in the net. After about 10 minutes of casting in the dark another fish broke the surface withing casting range. Look now... I'm going to try to catch that one. Two casts later and SPLASH... missed. But next cast it took it for real and now I got to show them a more normal one (i.e. not having it in netting range right after the take). But after getting it in almost all the way also that one disappeared back into the deep. Super day. The girls got to see fish in their right element, taking, jumping, fighting back... and that it's a fight that you don't always win. However, they didn't stay for very long so I failed to show them fights I actually won. But those first two were very determined to stay in the lake and showed them some really nice jumping and splashing. The girls' excitement during the fights were unmistakable. They're already looking forward to next weekend, when they will stay all day. I'll show them the winning step then... Bonus: Those two lost fights also showed Teresa that the answer No, but I lost three might not be a lie... every time.

Prayers needed... For 20 years I have lived in a neighbourhood of which a large part is used to house refugees while processing the asylum matters. I have had LOTS of neighbours from all over the world. Many have moved in... and moved out. Most of them avoid you and stick to their own nationality. Many also show a bad behaviour... doesn't respect anything at all. But my latest nextdoor neighbour has been something else. It's an Albanian family from the south part of Serbia. This family has been the kindest, most helpful, most willing to be friends with everyone(!) etc. etc. of all neighbours I've ever had... including the Swedish ones. We have spent so much time together that they have started to feel like family. In April the decision was made. Serbia is safe... there's no need for you to stay here. Of course this desicion was made by a Swede, who knows nothing about the fact that life of an Albanian Serb isn't the same as for a Serbian Serb. That's more a life of needing eyes in the neck if you step outside your door... and if you stay inside, still having to pray that it's not kicked in by Serbian Police (or someone paid by them). Serbia wasn't nice to Albanians in Kosovo. NATO drove them back, but they still don't treat the Albanian part of their own population as humans. Yesterday we were invited for dinner. Last one. Very emotional since we all knew what was going to happen today. Their bags were packed. Today it was time. Final goodbye. Very tough... I can't remember the last time I cried this much. A man I have known for barely a year, who I often needed help from one of his children to communicate with, who has called me 'my brother' almost from the start... it actually felt like saying goodbye to a brother.

Re: [VFB] Each vise has a preffered use
I use Dyna-King's Barracuda Ultimate Indexer and the Supreme. When I tried my first rotary (something Asian), I said 'Never a conventional again'. After that followed a Danvise and a Griffin Montana Mongoose. After about a year with that, I finally found my kind of vises... the Barracudas (and also became a member of Dyna-King Pro Staff). I started with a Junior, same as Tony, which after a short while got upgraded to the full-size. Finally that turned into today's Ultimate Indexer. When I had sent the Junior back, I kept its base to have as a travel base... and since I cut some shipping money on the weight difference, it didn't cost me much. When my Barracuda, piece by piece, got upgraded to the Ultimate Indexer, I also got a spare post, since the Ultimate Indexer post has the angle adjustment. So I thought 'What the heck' and bought the remaining parts of the Supreme... mostly to have both a rotary and a conventional to show when I'm out tying and promoting.

I was probably about 9 or 10 years old and had never seen a vise. I used feathers from a feather pillow and my tinsel was cooking foil. Amazingly, I did catch fish on this fly which was more like a streamer. In about 1973 I took a once a week evening fly tying course held at a local school. The students were advised to mail order a list of items from a supplier near the town of Kelowna, BC When it arrived I had a Crest vise, some mustad hooks and some feathers. I stuck with the Crest vise but eventually the clamp wore out. I replaced this with a Regal Inex purchased from Dan Bailey in 1984. for $45.00. Since then I have added a Dyna-King Voyager, Renzetti Traveler, a Veniard Midge, and a Nor-Vise. Some have come new and most as used models. I prefer to tie with a clamp base and use a Griffin vise offset to position the jaws were I want them for comfort. The Dyna-King Voyager is small and compact with a delrin base that is not heavy enough to stop it moving around while tying, but I use it mainly for trips. The Regal is used mainly for larger flies and I prefer to use it for tying tube flies. The Renzetti is my all round trout fly vise, The Veniard Midge ideal for very small flies. I like the Nor-Vise and need to practice more with it. The speed and ease of applying dubbing is a big plus. I would like a Dyna-King Baraccuda but can manage without. I bought a heavy Griffin base for my Regal to use when away in my trailer, however the clamp version of the Regal vise has a stem that is too long for such a base with the result that the jaws are really too high for my liking. Now maybe a Peak vise would suffice Neville (Nev) Gosling Greater Vancouver, BC Canada -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

Re: [VFB] My monitor just kicked the bucket.
Computer problems seem to be a VFB middle name. It wasn't long ago two of my own went down. Something took the primary and lightning took the reserve... and it left me with the reserve-reserve. But I bought a new one a month ago (laptop)... and another two used yesterday (laptop+tower). So now I'm up where I want to be again... with a really good one, a reserve, a reserve-reserve... and this time even a reserve-reserve-reserve (+ at least one that can be fixed). But I set one of the reserves up with a second system partition... a Cinderella partition. So it wouldn't surprise me if that doesn't stay up very long.

Re: [VFB] My monitor just kicked the bucket.
Nick is feeling a little bit guilty... sitting in the livingroom working on two screens... and having two more screens standing in the office doing nothing (+ another laptop standing under a pile of magazines in the bookshelf).

Re: [VFB] How is Nic Runnarson?
Nick Runarsson is just fine. His life has taken a sharp turn and today his life is a contrast to the life he had a couple of months ago. Nick has gotten a 'real' job, first one since Emerson Energy took their stuff and moved to China 2002(!). Since then his life has been coaching classes, shitty activation jobs and so on, for scrap money. The last one was a one he enjoyed, at the municipality's Economy Department... as application developer and local computer support. He did his job so good so they didn't want his activation bosses to move him somewhere else... and they hired him and put him in the role of super user in two of his municipality's biggest IT projects. From the mud and up into the clouds... just like that. A long time of unemployment can truely chew down ones self-confidence. Noone wants me. Maybe I'm not that good after all. It also made a difference in his paycheck, that's around 150% of the one a couple of months ago. The first one came in the end of September... almost by the time the lightning struck and killed his backup computer. His main computer had already crashed and he was back on the backup-backup. But now it wasn't a disaster, and a week later he had a new one that he absolutely loves... a Lenovo notebook... and now he can work lying on the sofa. Yep. That will have to be the negative part about his job. It's all on servers he can access from home... and time has showed several times, that he often enjoys his job a little too much for his own good. But this time he at least has the children who constantly disturb him. LOL The bicycle accident was nothing. A few days of limping and then he was back. The police didn't surprise in their decision either. Since everything else seems to be going his way, of course she was to blame for the accident too. So next week he will get even more money... which will come nicely timed to his Swedish Invasion trip to New Jersey in November.

Re: [VFB] IOFF ROLL-CALL The List
First you pay Tony (Treasurer) $10.000 under the table and he will give you Don's (Chairman of the Bored) secret phone number. He will hopefully patch you to Byard (President) and finally you can ask him. Depending on how much money Tony slipped into his own pocket Byard will decide about the membership. Nothing of this will of course be on paper since Rene (Secretary) is having his afternoon nap and is unable to write anything. /Jester -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-mail@googlegroups.com] För J Balmer Skickat: den 17 augusti 2011 18:37 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: RE: [VFB] IOFF ROLL-CALL The List How do you become a member? _ From: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-mail@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Don Ordes Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2011 10:01 AM To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Subject: [VFB] IOFF ROLL-CALL The List Thanks, Nick My list is on another computer that rarely ever gets turned on.

If I wanted his attention, I would have contacted him myself. I actually created an eBay account, just so I could get in touch with him or them. But in the middle of writing I changed my mind and decided to do it like this instead. So, let him live in the illusion that everything is free to use since noone won't find out anyway. I hope everyone sees it before he discovers it himself.

I've talked with some old-timers in the fly business when at the shows, in private. When the conversation gets around to copying others' work, I'm amazed at how many FAMOUS tiers got their start by robbing others or the 'general store' of knowledge to get their start in notariety. You wouldn't believe the names. I'll give one example on my part. Some guy posted a photo of a tiger-mouse that he tied on Mark Romero's site. It was the photo copied from Vladimere Markov's site, and the tiger-mouse was the one I gave to Mary Thompkins in Idaho falls, which she gave to Vlad when he made that FFF conclave there. This guy claimed it as his own pattern. Mark banned him from the site. People just don't believe in 'sin' anymore, nor in ethics, values, scruples, fairness, and on on. I like giving others credit for their accomplishments and their influence in anything I've done. I met Bill Howe at the San Mateo ISE Show in 1996, just before he 'retired' from tying and went 'Harleying', I think. But he taught me the secrets of his large 'Profile Flies' for saltwater streamers, basically a very flat deceiver that stripped very fast. I built on this knowledge and developed my very successful streamers, especially the Green Machine and the Big Blue. A normal giant streamer is like trying to drag a mop through the water, both for the strip and hauling it out for the back-cast. A flat profile fly strips easily and I can easily haul out a fly twice the length of a normal one if it is flat and thin, yet in profile, it looks like a whole fish to the gamefish.

Re: [VFB] Copyright mistake...
There ARE actions you can buy. That's just an optional addition. I have never done that. But there should be several actions ready as default... and then it's just to record your own. What buttons can't you find... 'Button mode' or the 'Actions' window? Try press Alt+F9. That should take you straight to the Actions window. In the upper right corner (above the scroll bar) you might find a little round button (CS3) or a square button with horizontal lines (CS4) that opens a menu... where you should be able to toggle between button and action mode.

Re: [VFB] Re: Mountain Home, not American Home
The two times I have been there, I've gone through Memphis. First time, last stop was Little Rock and second time, last stop was Springfield. They have some good mattresses and blankets at Memphis airport. On my way to Sowbug 2008 I ran into a blizzard there. All flights got cancelled and I (together with hundreds) had to sleep on the airport floor. The comic part of it was that our plans were for me to maybe stay at a motel in Springfield so Tony could wait to pick me up the following day. Now he decided to pick me up the same day... and instead HE was the one ending up spending the night at that Springfield motel, while I spent my night at the largest homeless shelter in Memphis.

SV: [VFB] Sow Bug Alumni Fly Swap
I was there 2006 and 2008 and loved every minute of it... even though I 2006 was in real pain (tying with a sprained wrist and talking through sunburned cracked lips). I wouldn't miss this swap. Count me in. /Nick -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För ray...@earthlink.net Skickat: den 10 oktober 2010 20:48 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: [VFB] Sow Bug Alumni Fly Swap Here we are almost to the midle of October and no new swaps. I tried to stir up some interest a few weeks ago, but got none. Maybe what I suggested was to far-fetched or maybe you guys are just tired of Jimmy D's swaps. Below is my suggestion. SOW BUG ALUMNI SWAP, with each of us tying one of the flies that we demonstrated tying at one of the Sow bug Conventions. To participate in this swap, you must have attended at least one SOW BUG Convention at Mountain Home, Arkansas. In my recollection, we have upwards of 35 fly tyers total from the VFB, FFW, and HCFF fly tying/fishing email lists that have attended at least one Sow bug. I'd imagine we'll have around 25 tyers participating, so that'd mean we'd need to tie 24 flies for me, the Swap meister to sort and send 24 different flies to the participants. I'd like to have a due date of flies to me of December 15, with the sign up deadline of November first. BEFORE I FORGET, I'M ALSO ASKING EACH OF US TO TIE A SPECIAL FLY FOR TONY SPEZIO, THE FATHER OF THE SOW BUG. YOU AND I WILL DO SOMETHING SPECIAL WITH THESE FLIES NO ONE PERSON CONNECTED WITH FLY FISHING/TYING HAS MEANT MORE THAN TONY SPEZIO IN MY FLY FISHING/TYING EDUCATION. I ALSO COUNT IT AS ONE OF LIFE'S GREAT PLEASURES, TO CALL TONY SPEZIO MY FRIEND. LEMME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE I tried to come up with a way to keep this a secret from Tony, but since I've lost my email address book, this was the only alternative I had to reach Sowbug Alumni. Tony please forgive me, Old Friend. JIMMY D -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

Re: [VFB] Re: Off-topic Kicking somebody out !!!!1
Well, it looked like that to me since he didn't say a word about it in his reply to Allan, that he posted before I mentioned it... and the fact that mine was the only quoted even though Allan's was quoted in mine didn't make me feel less behind the cross hairs either. I know that Allan's wasn't more than tongue-in-cheek, since most of us have asked for prayers in the past... and that's why I didn't expect to see something like that coming towards that comment. But I don't care what was meant by it. It doesn't matter. I got angry about what was said and what was not said, not about who he is. We have been good friends for six years and it takes more than one disagreement about words to make me question a friendship like that. But two hours after my last word in that discussion, any trace of irritation left disappeared anyway... to be replaced with prayers for Jody. /Nick -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För Don Ordes Skickat: den 20 september 2010 02:45 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: Re: [VFB] Re: Off-topic Kicking somebody out 1 Nick, I don't think Jimmy was singling you or Chuck or me out with exclamation points or the comment in general. Yours was the last email on the topic and that made it the one he replied to the list on. So it seemed like he was addressing you (or Chuck?) and it was, I believe, the thread that he was impersonally addressing- all the way back to Allen. I've seen this very thing happen before a number of times, and people get bent out of shape over an indirect fingerpoint. It was an idea, not an accusation. Jimmy had no intention to make anyone look stupid, and I didn't take it that way. Allen's comment, as we all know, was tongue-in-cheek. Any adverse reactions to that comment were, by extension, misinformed. We have always welcomed prayer requests, so why should this one be different.

[VFB] White River tips??

[VFB] Information hick-ups...
The surprises keep on coming. Yesterday a journalist from the local morning paper woke Teresa up with the question Today the city buys this house (and five others) for 1 SEK from the landlord so they can tare them down this fall. What do you think about that? Haven't heard a word from the landlord that would even qualify as a HINT that something like that was going down. Today's surprise: A guy called me and asked Are you coming down to Orsa tomorrow? I didn't understand what he meant and first I just thought it was someone who had dialled the wrong number. But I kind of recognized his voice. And then it hit me. It was Ulf Pierrou... and he meant Orsa Hunting Fishing Fair, where both of us tie flies every year. I was supposed to tie there this weekend, if the b**tard co-ordinating the fly-tying part had been kind enough to give me the heads-up he had promised me (and had been kind enough to share with the other tiers). I don't seem to be a priority when it comes to info that's important to ME... /Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

Re: [VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY
This is where the problems start. Who developed the coachman? Are you
sure? When did it become a royal coachman, a leadwing coachman, a fanwing
coachman, a then a (whoops) Royal Wulff? If the original tier wrapped a
body in peacock, is every peacock fly a copy or variation of that fly? If I
sub. peacock ice dub for peacock, is that still only a peacock variation?
What if I use black ice dub. Is that just a variation now, or is it a
black gnat? Color changed it? Why not the synthetic as a changer? What
about a Royal Wulff with poly wings? Is that still a Royal Wulff, since Lee
only made a change from white feather fanwings to white calf-tail to call it
a Royal Wulff? Can I call my Winger Adams a 'Don's Adams' like Lee Wulff
changed the Royal Fanwing Coachman by just changing the wing material?
(Maybe there was a tier named Royal Fanwing. No Buggs, there wasn't. And
nooo, we can't call a green Adams a Don's Adams-apple!)
Good example writing of two of my own:
With this variation I feel that I've been innovative and created something
new, even though it's in fact nothing more than taking an old fly and
applying other materials in other ways. I tied it being inspired by the old
one, but it's a fly I as well could have made without having the old one in
mind. Making a flat, tapered and segmented body to imitate the insect would
seem more natural to me, than making it look like a dull sausage. But...
basic blueprints for the prototype (and I'm not ashamed to call it that)
were on the table... and even though chenille has turned into Antron and
Krystal Flash / Ice Dub... and plain wrapping has turned into weaving on
underbody, its name is Montana + the describing Slim Sparkly:
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/mss_1.jpg
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/mss_2.jpg
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/mss_3.jpg
I feel the same way with this sister variation of its sister fly... and
since this prototype, with the tails/antennaes and bi-color dorsal/ventral,
is more imitative than its sister fly, it's probably also more likely the
one I would have tied without having another fly in mind. However, if I
actually was aiming for being imitative, enough to bother with bi-color
weaving, a bi-color chenille sausage would have been my last choice. But,
again, basic blueprints are on the table so it's Bitch Creek... with the
describing Slim Sparkly:
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/bcss_1.jpg bcss_1.jpg
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/bcss_2.jpg bcss_2.jpg
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/
http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/temp/bcss_3.jpg bcss_3.jpg
But since this one actually is woven from the start, it's ALL about changing
the materials. So technically, to take it a step further and change its
white rubber legs into white biots, to make it even more imitative wouldn't
make a difference. It's still just another change of materials. It would
turn it even more into a different fly ('even more' as I think mine already
is)... but built upon the same blueprints. And if I took a couple of antron
strands and made a wingcase out of them, to make it even more imitative...
would it be a completely different fly or a Bitch n' Montana Mutation, Slim
Sparkly version?
The original sausages were in my head from the start and I aimed to
improve, so these are just 'my versions'. But if I had done them before I
knew of the originals, had them on my web page for a couple of years and
then suddenly seen a friend using the sausages, I wouldn't automatically
think he had made 'chenille versions' of my own. The appearances of these
two, the shapes, their sharp contours and the light reflecting glare (which
I wish the camera could capture better) make them differ a lot from the
originals. How many would think 'Montana' if my thorax was black?
But 'improving an original' or 'creating from scratch' doesn't matter to me.
The Slim Sparkly generation has been a development in its own and both
of them are version three. Already existing blueprints don't stop me from
feeling innovative after my work with these. Several friends have also asked
for a step-by-step on the Sparkly Bitch, so I made one yesterday
(http://www.swedneckflyfishing.com/bc_slimsparkly_steps.htm).
... and today I'm packing my fourth Bitch Creek version for Don's Rope Swap.

1. He says during the time period (past two decades) we have a

Re: [VFB] Big day in Sweden yesterday...
He didn't even get a decent start. The king was far from enthusiastic about it. His reaction wasn't really YESSS... SHE'S MARRYING A COMMONER!!. So before the educational work even could start, it was work with getting an angry king to capitulate. The Swedish monarchy is over 1000 years old, but today the king has no political power. All parties are for republic... and the only thing that keeps it going is royal blood and tradition. But royal genes are thinning out in the Bernadotte family, who has had the throne for 200 years. Our queen was once a commoner from Germany (wasn't met with open arms either)... and now the crown princess, heir to the throne, is marrying another commoner. /Nick -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För Rodger Oleson Skickat: den 20 juni 2010 18:35 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: Re: [VFB] Big day in Sweden yesterday...

[VFB] Finnish FlyFair further away...
Got a letter from Finnair, telling me that I was prioritated if I wanted to go, that it was easy to get a refund if I didn't/couldn't etc etc... and a whole lot of other info I already knew. But added this time was: Connection flights might not be available. Please fill in the form before you board. (Google translation of the form) I accept that the volcanic eruption in Iceland continues to affect air traffic within Europe and to my below mentioned travel plans have changed for reasons Finnair's control. I confirm that I am embarking on this flight aware that the number of connecting flights from Helsinki can be limited or completely absent, and that I take this risk-aware. I agree irrevocably that transport agreement between Finnair and me have changed so that my final destination with Finnair is Helsinki, Finland, and not the destination on the ticket, and the point of origin for my return trip, unless I have booked a return trip, will be Helsinki, Finland, and not the place indicated on the ticket. I accept that I stand for any costs that might result from failure connecting flight from Helsinki or return flight to Helsinki, and I hereby grant discharge to Finnair and its staff representing Finnair in this regard not only the responsibility to grant me compensation for the unused portion of the ticket fare under current rules. In my head I had If the connection flight is cancelled, I will get help with bus or train connection but with 'Helsinki as final destination', it started to smell a little too much like lottery... or maybe Finnish roulette. Finnavia is the one that has kept their air space cleanest the last couple of days and many longer flights are on the waiting list. There will be more than one bullet in that revolver. Saving the money to next year I guess. I never win anything in lotteries... /Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

[VFB] Nahhh, this was just great... not!!!
Yesterday morning a volcano by the glacier Eyjafjallajökull said 'rise and shine, let's have a blast'... and started to have a blast. I booked myself a flight ticket to Finland day before yesterday... invited to tie at Finnish FlyFair 2010, next weekend. Today I read that as of tonight Swedish air space is closed... just like in UK, Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Denmark, parts of Germany and western, northern and middle of Finland. The volcano continues to spew out ash and the cloud is spreading out over northern Europe and volcanic expert Reynir Bödvardsson at Uppsala university says: It can stop in a few days, but it's just as probable that it can go on for weeks or even months. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8622978.stm 'It is likely that the production of ash will continue at a comparable level for some days or weeks. But where it disrupts travel, that depends on the weather', Einar Kjartansson, a geophysicist at the Icelandic Meteorological Office, told the Associated Press. Videos at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=icelandic+volcano+14+april http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=icelandic+volcano+14+aprilaq=f aq=f So, we'll just see if Finland will see my pretty face this year too. Situation now: Nothing takes off from here... and nothing lands over there. :o( /Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

Re: [VFB] Peak Vise
To the ones saying 'sure grumpy today' I can say that on the contrary, I'm
really excited these days... leaving for Finnish FlyFair next week - and to
the ones saying I need to tie some foam flies I can say that lately I've
been spending entire evenings together with my friends 'Mr ClosedCell' and
'Mr Zap-A-Gap'... including last night. But it doesn't make everything just
slide right off.
If being that kind of guy makes me a grumpy guy... well, at least it took
you six years to finally discover it. You've got to give me some credit for
being able to hide it for that amount of time. (Some haven't yet... please
don't tell.)
But I will return to my synthetic friends and my BEEP vise beside me,
bring out the dear deer and finish my Finnish hopper ('dear', 'deer',
'finish', 'Finnish'... I bet few expected something jokish from me so
soon).

longer apply to. (So don't bother about us... the others gave up a long time

Re: [VFB] Jokish?
I know. I just reminded you about the contract Veronica signed after I'd softened her up with a nice dinner, romantic music in the moonlight... and the stuff that usually starts to alert moderators when it's put in words. If I'm happy tomorrow morning, we (me, Buggs, DrD) will share all positive credits with Jester, no matter what they are refering to. Results of my efforts that night: She had (of course) the night of her life, but since she didn't want to sign anything she did her best to hide it. It didn't matter to me though, because when she showed that she was happy to leave (of course also acting), that was enough to seal the deal. So from that morning the credits are: * You shouldn't have done that Buggs. * You handled that really well Buggs... and Jester. She challanged the wrong guy and learned her lesson: Don't try to fool a fool who is a fool with a certificate. ;o) /Jester -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För Don Ordes Skickat: den 13 april 2010 20:47 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: Re: [VFB] Jokish?

Re: [VFB] Peak Vise
Missed some in the wrap-up (the whole point actually). It was supposed to be: Tell me I'm getting unnecessarily technical by asking what you're saying with a 'reminder' like that... and I will respond with that I think you're getting unnecessarily hostile in your assumtions about my reason for asking. /Nick -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För Niclas Runarsson Skickat: den 12 april 2010 21:09 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: Re: [VFB] Peak Vise Sorry... my mistake to unnecessarily ask a question(!) including a brand I have a link to. But it was a question and nothing else - and I don't think I'm getting that technical by asking which kind of 'equivalent' you meant. 'Qualities', like the examples I mentioned... or 'functionality', like the examples you're mentioning (number 3). The reason I picked only Dyna-King (from YOUR examples, don't forget that) as example in my own question is that I have heard from many about how many years they've used them, something I haven't heard about Renzetti. Not that I'm saying they aren't long lasting, but I'm not including it if it's based on nothing but a guess. I know nothing more about the Peak than what I've seen on pictures and read... and since it's quite new, the highest percent of what I've read is to be found in two to four line posts in discussion forums. I'm not building even a probable guess based on statistics like that. I have not forgotten that I have a link to Dyna-King. So feel free to slap me on my fingers in front of others when/if I do and I'm starting making STATEMENTS which stink of pushing... but not when I'm asking a QUESTION... to understand what it is you're saying. Two entirely different things... links or no links. If I had understood what you'd meant, the question would have been unnecessary and I wouldn't have asked either. Tell me I'm getting unnecessarily technical by asking what you're saying... and I will respond with that I think you're getting unnecessarily hostile in your assumtions about my reason for asking. /Nick -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För Neville Gosling Skickat: den 12 april 2010 19:05 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: [VFB] Peak Vise I think that we are getting unnecessarily technical by trying to define equivalent and don't forget that you have a link to Dyna-King. 1) Value - I recently saw one for sale brand new, not secondhand on ebay for $129.95. To my way of thinking, it represented excellent value in this day and age. The normal price is approx $144.66 with free shipping. 2) While it may not be as visually attractive as the Renzetti, HMH or Dyna-King Barracuda, Barracuda Jnr or Trekker it appears to be well made. 3) It has a full range of extra as do both the Renzetti and Dyna-King such as saltwater or midge jaws, bobbin cradle, waste catcher etc. 4) The reports that I have read indicate that the standard jaws hold the hook well. Obviously, if one ties very large or very small flies, one should use the most suitable jaws. 5) Finally, I believe it does the job just as well as the equivalent vises listed above.
