[VFB] Holographic laminates

Anyone have any suggestions on where I can find holographic laminates or vinyls for crease flies? I am looking for 8 x 12 or 12 x 12 sheets in silver and gold with the sparkle pattern and the prismatic pattern. They can be adhesive backed or heat transfer type materials. Most of my searches come

I have just returned from a week long fishing trip to a lake that I have never fished before. It is a good sized and attractive lake with gin clear water. It is known as a very technical lake. The fishing was not as hot as I was hoping and one had to work hard to catch fish. The first night

I agree Tony. A few years ago I got the holographics I used in the crease fly swap at either Michael's or Hobby Lobby here in South East Texas. Tight lines, Salty Dan Orange Texas If at first you don't succeed, maybe you shouldn't try sky diving! --- On Fri, 5/18/12, Anthony Spezio

Robert:  I haven't been able to find the foil at any of the craft stores around here.    This may be what you're looking for.  http://jonestones.com/ They appear to be the source for most of the foils I've seen in fly shops or at the local fly fishing shows.  These are transfer foils

I was fishing two rods but only one fly per rod. We are allowed to do that in BC if alone in a boat, but we cannot have more than one fly per rod. I fished a floating line with a 23 foot 6 pound fluorocarbon leader on the main rod and the sinking line for just part of the trip as stated below.
