Some species of nymphs are swimmers, some are clingers, some are burrowers.
If he is short-stripping a nymph (but not darting), he is probably
imitiating a swimmer variety. Dead-drifting works for imitating clingers,

where these were
still offered as box-stock flies.
It is fun digging through feather bags that I haven accessed in 20 years- would
never use that stuff tying modern flies. A true lost art, those wet flies of
olden-days.
Oh...and what a mess I'm making...

VFBers,
I’m having trouble finding jelly rope in clear. Does anyone have any spare to
sell or know of where I can find some?
Thanks,

Wes, I think that’s the stuff. I’ll check out the Hobby stores here to see if
anyone carries it.

Mike,
Just don’t take the cayenne capsules on an empty stomach, especially with
something like hot coffee. From experience. Always eat them during a meal.
Just made a pot of beef chili with garden veggies (lots of cayenne peppers &
tomatoes) and stew meat, beans, etc. Yummie.

My streamers and dry flies are in the boxes ready to go down to the post office.
Hope ya’ll like.

Did some research on GoFundMe and the reviews are really really bad.
So do you have a direct address where I can send a check?
I spent an afternoon with Mark, and we had lunch and drove around Lake Charles.
I think Bridgett got a mouse, too.
