Gudebrod closed down around 8 years or so ago Due to the scarcity of this puduct, I only found 2 sellers with the colour/size that I wanted.

Tied in smaller sizes, 16, 18 and 20, usually fished as a dropper under a larger dry fly. Jerry Caruso "All things considered, I'd rather be in Philadelphia."

The two spools that I purchased on eBay are marked #396 and I don’t think that is a Gudebrod number. The red does not quite match and I suspect the seller has respooled from a bulk spool of another brand. I still have an old Gudebrod colour chart from about 1986 that lists 2 other red colours being #355 Candy Apple Red and #206 Garnet. I suspect I have been scammed but at least I have 2x 100 yard spools of red for future builds. I never though that 1 rod would use more than 100 yards of thread but there was quite a bit of wastage as the intermediate wraps were only 4 or 5 turns and just handling the section they woud come undone if not varnished.

Re: [VFB] DonO update 05 Aug 2019
Don, thanks foe the good wishes. I am status quo. Not doing much. Last Saturday I got a ride to the Branson show. I was able to tie a few Chili Peppers. That is the most I have tied in almost three years. Fingers stiffen up and freeze up that way for several minuets. This makes it hard trying to tie.I have been trying to get a 1 WT rod made for a friend. Started it over 6 months ago. I might get it done in a couple of months, Dot insists I have a "baby sitter" when I go downstairs. hard to just snap my fingers to get one when I can work. When I can work it is only or an hour as the pain in my stump gets to more than I can handle.Enough of my griping, I really miss not being active on the list.Not fly related, The owner of my plane I designed and built 59 years ago flew up from Kentucky to visit with us two weeks ago. This was while my daughters family were here. They had never seen my plane. My daughter was just 3 when it was sold due to my heart attack. I had not seen my baby in about 30 years. Last time I saw her is when I did a show in SLC. I loved seeing her again. On Monday, August 5, 2019, 1:49:03 PM CDT, Joyce M Westphal wrote: Thank you for the update. Constant pain is so difficult.

Re: [VFB] Pink Squirrel swap update 3/15
Don, I sympathize with you on the pain. I have what they call Phantom Pain.. Even though the foot and leg is gone the pain is still there. At times the pain can go on for hours, it is enough to make a full grown man cry.. I have also developed the shakes. I had planned to tie at one session at the Sowbug Show in two weeks but I am have to drop out on it.Had 10 days in the hospital, got out Sunday, still not having good days. I think they have me on too many meds.Speaking of Sowbug, show will have over 150 tiers over the three day show. 165 are signed up.

Re: [VFB] Pink Squirrel Nymph Swap-Swp info- one extra?
Thanks Don for the prayers. I really am not having much time for myself with all the running to doctors wound clinic and therapy.I am learning to walk on my prosthesis but it causes a lot of discomfort and pain . I go to the prosthesis clinic one day a week along with all the other things.. Lot of adjustments and more to come. On top of all of this they want to send me to pain management. Dot is in a wheelchair so I have to attend to her needs also. I am chief cook and bottle washer. Microwave is getting a workout.

Long time no post. :) Hi Guys,I can't remember ever using this forum but I'm testing it out to see if this post comes through. I took a very long break from tying publicly, I stepped back from the Whting team to work on my degree. A few of you were so encouraging and supportive of me while I worked my way through school. THANK YOU!!! I still tie for my own fishing and fun but not as much as I would like to. I'm in a different pond now than I was used to so I'm adjusting to that also. I miss the salt water. I spend more time tying Hans CDC Elk hair caddis flies and timy trout flies... WOW what a change for me. I finally have a new desk to set up and hopefully make a more comfortable place to tie for my self than out of boxes. I wanted to reach out and see how Don O was doing. He's been on my mind. I've kept in touch with a few of you but I have stepped very far back from public tying while I put myself through school and joined the working world. Now I finally have some time for myself again and I have been thinking about so many of my friends that I haven't been able to keep in touch with as much as I would like to .For those of you who knew me you will remember me as Deb Duran. I hope all of you are well. Tony, I still love my froggies!!! I have read some updates on you and I hope all is going well for you this holiday.I've never lost touch with Peggy and I look forward to seeing you and Jerry this spring again.Now with any luck this will post.

Hoping to get to the International fly tying symposium tomorrow but not sunday (only due to church) but may be forced to sit a lot of the time at the featured tyer presentations and the likes... we'll see how I hold up. It is one thing to work from home at a desk the whole time... another entirely to walk around a show... so we'll see how it goes. My wife has been saying that all four of our family is going into the show, so this may be interesting... with a 5 year old rambunctious kid in the mix, it will be very interesting...

THANKS FOR ALL OFF YOUR PRAYERS AND WELL WISHES. it's me, well, a good part of me anyway. The stroke hit my right half (left side of brain) so lost all movement and feeling on right side of my body. also lost the vision on right side of both eyes. so I'm typing with left hand with a small arc of vision. This is my 1st email work since stroke. I've been home two weeks now and am progressing with therapy and recovery very well according to therapists. Using my right hand for some things, but still have no feeling, which is weird. I am doing some walking therapy, but again no feeling. Hope all feeling comes back with time. Still have appt. with eye doctor next week. Hope he can do something. Don't know about the numbness in my face, will have to check later- big fallout of that is drooling at times, and then the constant numbness.. Had to sell the new home we just bought to get a single level. All went amazingly fast and well. Will post new address soon. Can't tell you how much of a blessing it is to have a fantastic wife who stepped up to the plate as hit nothing but homers since that night. My incredible sister came up from Mesa as has been an a incredible helper for both Cheryl and me. Alan DiSomma is due here Sunday and we will be discussing my fly business and what of mine to sell. Plus we'll discuss fate of video projects. All input is welcome. Have no idea on what I'll recover after time, but I have a lot to get sold to simplify and cover meds. Well, at the limit of my endurance for now. Took over an hour for this 5 minute email. As you can imagine, I have a lot of recovery time on my hands, so reading emails from my friends would be much appreciated and great for my mental therapy. Hope you are all having wonderful summers.

Thank you so much for all the kind well wishes and words. I was able to open Don's email and we read all of your messages to him, as he is unable to read much. He asked me to thank everyone and to say hello. He is still recovering in the therapy unit of St. Al's hospital in Boise. When he had the stroke he lost the use of the right side of his body. So his arm and hand, leg, and even his vision on the right half of his body were all affected (he can see out of both eyes, but only from his nose to his left side). Unfortunately he is right handed, so using his left hand for everything is also difficult by itself. However, he is steadily making progress in his recovery and has regained the ability to move his limbs and use them to some extent. He still requires a great deal of assistance to get up and move, but the therapists are optimistic that he will continue to improve. Only time will tell how much capability he will recover. He is scheduled to be released from the hospital to go home this Thursday, but we will continue with having therapists come in to work with him to help with his rehab. Again, thank you all for your kind words and support, I will continue to monitor his emails and forward your thoughts and questions to him. Thank you.

Thank you so much for all the kind well wishes and words. I was able to open Don's email and we read all of your messages to him, as he is unable to read much. He asked me to thank everyone and to say hello. He is still recovering in the therapy unit of St. Al's hospital in Boise. When he had the stroke he lost the use of the right side of his body. So his arm and hand, leg, and even his vision on the right half of his body were all affected (he can see out of both eyes, but only from his nose to his left side). Unfortunately he is right handed, so using his left hand for everything is also difficult by itself. However, he is steadily making progress in his recovery and has regained the ability to move his limbs and use them to some extent. He still requires a great deal of assistance to get up and move, but the therapists are optimistic that he will continue to improve. Only time will tell how much capability he will recover. He is scheduled to be released from the hospital to go home this Thursday, but we will continue with having therapists come in to work with him to help with his rehab. Again, thank you all for your kind words and support, I will continue to monitor his emails and forward your thoughts and questions to him. Thank you.

Re: [VFB] Jig Hooks

Tony On Wed, 2/21/18, Wes Wadawrote: Subject: Re: [VFB] Jig Hooks To: "VFB Mail" Date: Wednesday, February 21, 2018, 3:32 PM Hi Jerry and Neville, Thanks so much for your replies. Yes, I did mean "balanced" rather than suspended. There is some popularity for that pattern here in Oregon and northern California. Good to hear that there is really no difference in effectiveness of the hooks (using different extension angles) when you suspending the pattern below and indicator. Here's a sample of a balanced version of one of my flies Bastardo Bugger as tied by a friend. I think what I need to do to improve hooking qualities are to move the angled hookeye as far forward as possible, use at least a tungsten bead, and also to use a wider gape hook, like Neville suggested. These balanced patterns are definitely not my favorite way to tie, but they do merit a place in the flybox. At least *until further notice*.

Re: [VFB] VFB in Stereo!

To: "VFB" Date: Wednesday, June 28, 2017, 11:14 AM Fellow VFBers When I checked my email this morning I noticed that I had 6 items in my spam folder. Upon checking, 5 of the 6 were from VFB and marked as suspected spam by my ISP and the 6th was spam. The odd thing about this is that they were all addressed to nev.gosl...@shaw.ca that I have not used with VFB for some time. I marked each of them as not spam and the messages were automatically moved to my shaw account. In my Gmail account nev.gosl...@gmail.com which I have used for VFB for some time, I had the exact same 5 VFB messages. It seems that my ISP and google groups don’t see eye to eye.

Re: [VFB] Health update
After over four years they still have not found my problem. I wish a poke would take care of it. Arkansas Tony On Wed, 6/28/17, Pete Grampwrote: Subject: [VFB] Health update To: "vfb-mail@googlegroups.com" Date: Wednesday, June 28, 2017, 5:08 AM Well, they had me on the gurney for gallbladder removal surgery, and then the surgeon reread the ultrasound and bloodwork and CT and so on, and wanted more tests done (I think one is called HIDA, and there are two others I won't pretend to be able to type out correctly)... so for those who are aware, from my facebook close friends list, the surgery was cancelled for the gallbladder removal, pending further tests.On the up-side of things, the surgeon poked and prodded all over my gut with just his gloved hands, and now this may be a placebo effect at its finest, but after 2 months of pain and uncertainty what it was, to be without any pain there, hey I'll take it! It makes absolutely no logical sense to me how simply poking in my belly is going to make the pain stop, but indeed it did (maybe I had gas...haha) but seriously, I have no explanation for it - yet there it is, two days since he poked for a good 2 or 3 minutes straight, and now no pain. Like I said, I'm chalking it up to mind over matter, as in my mind playing tricks on me, but hey, I'll take no pain over the pain I had any day! Now don't get me wrong, we still want to figure out what caused the pain in the first place, and what's up, but I thank my Lord for this blessing of no pain, and that I didn't have to go under the knife! Just wanted to let those of you who may not have heard, know about this update.Oh, and to keep it related... Fishing trip to Manchester VT and then Oakland/ Waterville ME (both USA) is still scheduled for 2 weeks in July, (if near either location, private message me if you'd like to get together and/or if you can recommend fishing locations to go it alone with extremely mild wading conditions, preferably from the banks/ shoreline of the streams and rivers for trout and the likes) and hopefully this mess doesn't keep our family from that vacation / holiday.

Passed by my local pond and saw another fly fisher there (rare) just reeling them in (very rare), hand over foot, thankfully catch and releasing or I'd need to find myself a new local pond to fish - he was catching that many - but when I stopped by to ask what he was using, he gave a sly grin and said an older pattern called the "Hank Roberts White Gloved Howdy". I shouldn't be as surprised as I am, but seeing as it was a fellow who looked fresh out of puberty, pimples and all, I was a bit surprised he was using an older pattern. He never did let me get a look at the fly, so I'm on a "quest" of sorts, to find a pattern recipe and example photo to get an idea of what the end product should look like and how to tie it.

Passed by my local pond and saw another fly fisher there (rare) just reeling them in (very rare), hand over foot, thankfully catch and releasing or I'd need to find myself a new local pond to fish - he was catching that many - but when I stopped by to ask what he was using, he gave a sly grin and said an older pattern called the "Hank Roberts White Gloved Howdy". I shouldn't be as surprised as I am, but seeing as it was a fellow who looked fresh out of puberty, pimples and all, I was a bit surprised he was using an older pattern. He never did let me get a look at the fly, so I'm on a "quest" of sorts, to find a pattern recipe and example photo to get an idea of what the end product should look like and how to tie it.

Re: [VFB] Sowbug Travel Options -- like to get some advice and hints
Good to hear from you, Memphis i about 5 hours from Flippin a bit shorter to Mtn. Home. WE are about 25 minuets from Mtn Home now that we have a four lane highway. It was just two lane when you were here. Fishing should me good. I am not sure yet is I will be able to take you on the river but I can find a friend that should be able to do it. Most of my fishing friends have passed on. I have not been on the river for two years. I am having some pretty bad health issues with spells. I don't know when they will hit me and at times I get totally unresponsive. It has really gotten bad this year. I will be having a brain study next week. I have to go to Branson to a specialist up there. I will have probes put on my head that will record my brain waves 24 hours for the five days. I hope I will be able to tie at the Sowbug.. I was asked to make a presentation bamboo rod to auction off but so far I have not been able to work in the shop to get one made. Looking fwd to seeing you again and we want you and your wife to spend a bit of time with us. I think I told you what is up at Branson, I think you will find a lot to do there if you decide to go up there. We used to get a season pass for Silver Dollar City but since we don't travel anymore we don't do it any more. I just go to see some of my doctors up there. It is about a two hour drive.

Re: AW: [VFB] Sowbug Travel Options -- like to get some advice and hints
It is both scenic and a tourist area with a lot of country shows. Lot of tourist attractions like the Titanic, WW2 museum a lot of different food restaurants and rides on the WW2 Ducks that take you out on the lake. There is also a showboat and dinner show. The boat is a paddle wheel boat like used on the Mississippi river. That is just a few things. March has not started the tourist season yet so prices are reasonable. Day before yesterday I had to go to a specialist in Branson and in the waiting room was a person that looked familiar. We talked a bit and he said that he was 80 years young and survived two plane crashes. It was Mikey Gilly. I shook his hand and as he reached for Dot's hand she said she wanted a hug. He gave her a big hug and my son took a photo. He then stayed a bit and talked to us. Great person. When he left I said, we have something in common. Two plane crashes and the same doctor.

Re: [VFB] Sowbug Travel Options -- like to get some advice and hints
Lot to see in Branson just before you get to Springfield. Arkansas Tony On Wed, 12/14/16, rene.zillm...@t-online.dewrote: Subject: [VFB] Sowbug Travel Options -- like to get some advice and hints To: "Mail, VFB" Date: Wednesday, December 14, 2016, 9:23 AM Flytyer and fisher, I'm finalizing right now my flight plans, need to update plans a bit due to cost constraints to the flights. I see 2 options: 1. Fly to Memphis, spend a week or so at Sowbug, and 1 week in the Memphis area 2. Fly to Sowbug (Springfield/Memphis), fly to Boston and spend there one week before returning to Europe I know the Boston area, so I know what to do there. However, some questions: What are hot spots in the Memphis area to visit in March/April: Elvis home for sure, steamboat on the Mississippi, more ideas? What will be the weather in Boston/Cape Cod etc. Nice enough for traveling arount? Or winter storms? Any other ideas how I can divide the trip in a sowbug part and a touristic part which pleases a non ff (my lovely better half..)? Any advise would be helpful Rene -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.

Re: [VFB] Chico's footprints.
We had to put two of ours down in a number of years, we passed on the third one. Just could not handle loosing another one.

Well, yesterday, we got the footprints thing in the mail shown in the attached here. And they had all 20 or so employees from that Vets office sign a "condolences card" along with this plaster cast of Chico's feet.
