Re: [VFB] Rotary Hackle Pliers??
Guess I must be the odd ball. I use the old style pliers as weights to keep stuff from unwinding, for the winding of hackle I use one of several rotary style hackle pliers. My rotary vise I use just to check the off side of a fly or work on the underside of a fly. What ever floats your boatjust make sure the drain plug is in place. Gary S - Original Message - Don, I agree with you on the old type hackle pliers but I really don't use them anymore since I use the hinge type. I added a bit of shrink tubing on the jaws and that works fine and prevents slipping. One of the things I liked about the old type is you could put your finger in the loop and just twirl it around with the hackle. I liked it for collar hackles When I started tying a number of Parachute flies that is when I went to the hinge pliers and I just never went back to the old ones. We just use what works best for us. Tony On Friday, March 13, 2015 9:18 AM, Don Ordes f...@tribcsp.com wrote: Chuck, Seems like you came up with the correct decision to nix the rotary hackle pliers. I have a set and never use them. I also have an old squeeze-spring type with rubber pads, and I’ll use them before the rotary. The rubber pads on the old pliers are the key as they don’t allow the pliers to put a break-bend in the hackle stem, just a ‘soft’ bend at most. The rotary is hard metal and if you put any angle on the hackle while pulling you break the hackle with the crack in the stem that it creates. The old hackle pliers is a spring loop and you can put your finger in the bend and sort of ‘rotary’ the hackle. Secondly, the ‘old’ hackle pliers came in handy with the old short hackles, which is all we had for decades- sometimes took two hackles to tie a fly. With the advent of Hoffman’s, and then Whiting genetics, the hackles are so long that it’s easy to hang on to the hackle tip with your fingers while winding. I’ve just struck up a deal with a local friend here in Nampa to be my videographer and editor. I have been so busy with work I haven’t had time to even keep up with Fantasy Fly orders. But he’s going to assist me in YouTube tutorial videos, DVDs, and other videos I want to do. After we do a rope-dub intro video, we’ll do some fundamental tying tutorials, and I have a list of a dozen fundamentals that I will post videos on, one of them being innovative ways of using Whiting hackles. I’m also going to do a video of my old pool trick shots from 30 years ago. Should be fun.

Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica ? Where do they go? Wonder no more ! ! ! It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex life.The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintain a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life. If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into, and buried. The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing: ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ Freeze a jolly good fellow. Freeze a jolly good fellow. You really didn't believe that I know anything about penguins, did you? It's so easy to fool OLD people. I am sorry, an urge came over me that made me do it!!!

Re: [VFB] fly tyer magazine winter 2014
Ashley If you like books in hand you would love my tying room. In 30 some years of collecting I have aquired over 1200 different titles on fly fishing and tying. Wife wants me to sell them as she dosen't want to have to deal with them after I'm gone. Gary - Original Message - Gary, I am tending to agree with you when it comes to books and magazines concerning fly tying and fishing has it is easier to reference them which is one of the main reasons I started picking it up the way I did.

Gary S Hi Gary, No, different companies which sell magazines individually, I found it cheaper and easier than a printed subscription. I did have a digital subscription but I was messed about and lied to by the subscription department hence why I went down this way of getting it. I don't normally have any problems. I just haven't seen it advertised and thought I may have missed out or it had gone.

Re: [VFB] Dying feathers with Rit dye ???
Chuck Get a copy of A.K. Best's book DYING BLEACHING Natural fly-tying materials. Feathers and cotton do not dye the same way. Best has full instructions and will take you through it step by step. Gary s - Original Message - Folks: Can anybody give me the “secret” to dying feathers (and/or fabric) with Rit dye?? What happened is that my son had some dark purple demin material he wanted dyed black. He added TWO boxes of Rit dye to the three gallons or so of water as he had four yards of material to dye. Adde the salt but not the vinegar as it said to only use the vinegar with salt if the material is silk or wool and not cotton. Brought the water to a boil, then let it soak all day. Still just came out a darker purple and NIT jet black like the dye is. Now is my problem in that. He saved the water as I have a ton of grizzly feathers, but hardly any black, so I was just going to sye a grizzly neck in that same dye water mix after he finished. But I don’t want the grizzly to go from black and white, to purple ad white. Any tips?? Should I add vinegar??

Re: [VFB] Fly Tying book to sell or trade.
Got a list of what you are looking for? I have a list of duplicate books I would like to be rid of. I need the bookshelf space.

Donna: No way. I am just trying to get that certain Fishy Fullum book by using the ol’s barter system since cash is a scare commodity here LOL.. And the trout fishing books. It’s just that I know there are probably newbies, (or oldies) that can get much more use of those than I can, seeing as we have no trout where I live. I still have well over 100 books and/or videos besides those 3 or 4. And hope to buy 100 more in the future. EVERYnight before going to sleep, I read my Bible, and I get one of my fly tying/fishing books and read about 20-30 minutes out of each book and I ALWAYS learn something new out of them BOTH... Doc says it would help my insomnia if I’d just lay down and go to sleep without reading, watching TV, or getting on the computer, but he does agree with me that out of those three things, the reading is the lessor likely to cause insomnia than watching TV or looking at the computer screen , both of which are turning on and turning off at a rate of at LEAST 60 times per seconds (called hertz), but it happens soo fast, we don’t see that “strobe light” effect, but our brains do. Oh well, got off the subject there, but the short answer is NOOO. I’d rather give up just about any other hobby I have that fishing or tying. I’m what they call “addicted” to tying. Now for some pretty weather so I can get back to being addicted to the fishing end of it LOL...Chuck From: Donna Crowell Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2014 1:23 PM To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [VFB] Fly Tying book to sell or trade.

I would be interested in an equal trade PLUS, I’d throw in another of several books I have on fly tying for Trout. I have three smaller books, all in good condition, one called “Fly Fishing with Streamers” by Ian and Charity Rutter, “Basic Essential Fly Fishing” by Michael Rutter, or “Fly Fishing for brook trout”; Advice from the guides” by Ian and Charity Rutter. Like I said, I’d trade you the Fishy Fullum Book (or ANY Fishy Fullum Book” for the “Micropatterns; Tying the Small Fly” book plus one of the three small books listed here above.

Re: [VFB] I need step by step instructions to tie this fly
Look on Utube all kinds of ways to tie them - Original Message - From: Chuck Alexander chuckalexan...@centurylink.net To: fly fishing for panfish flyfishingandflytyingforpanf...@yahoogroups.com, vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, March 22, 2014 12:40:28 AM Subject: [VFB] I need step by step instructions to tie this fly Folks: I found this awesome looking, realistic looking blue dragonfly while going through some boxes of materials today. if I tied it, it must have been on one of my best days LOL, because outside of the “mussed up” Poly Yarn wing material (mussed up because I failed to store it properly, NT because it wasn’t tied properly). it looks identical to the blue dragonflies we have on the lakes, rivers, creeks, ponds etc around here in the Summertime. And I have been reading the book “Sunfishes” by Jack Ellis, the late, great sun fisherman from Texas, and he shows in that book how, when these dragonflies are seen on the water, instead of flying around, or landing on bush branches, it’s because that’s when they are laying their eggs, and that’s when you see every sun/panfish from bluegills, to crappie, to large mouth bass, POP them right off the water. This is why I think that if I start now, I can have myself a good amount tied up for when this happens in my part of the country in June and July mostly. But, I nee a site/video that can give me step by step instruction f anybody knows where one can be found. . And, the other day, my wife bought me a bunch of peel and stick 2mm craft foam at Hobby Lobby and they come in “metalflake” colors, and there is a blue metal flake she bought that (to me) looks even more like the “real McCoy” than this solid blue one does, if that is possible . Like I said, I don’t remember tying this fly, and if I did, it probably wouldn’t look half as good as this one does, so hopefully this email will reach the person who actually tied this one. I hope so as you did one heck of a great job. The eyes appear to be made of a short 1/16” cylinder (that I now have the cutters for to make these thankfully) and the body appears to be “doubled over, and then has the segments tied every 1/8” of so with black thread, with the wings tied in between two of those segments. I don’t think it’s really that “hard” to tie, but one that, if you don’t get your steps in the EXACT order, you’ll have to start over from square one, and I’m a pro at doing that mess up LOL..

You will not be disappointed I have used both their floating and sinking lines and have never found fault with them, other than they are sometimes hard to find when you want a new one.
