Re: [VFB] Some juice-bug experiments- bloody scuds

[Conranch]

It is good to be back on VFB. Some time back I was finding I just did 
not have the time.
Recently I have modified my living a bit and do have more time I can 
devote to keeping contact with friends.
Many of the board members do not know me. I have been around forever 
(yep, one of the older guys). I do
own Conranch Hackle and have tied and fly fished for over 66 years. 
Still learnin.
I like to tie in a red tag on a lot of my dry flies. I'm not sure if the 
fish like it but I do. I manage to catch more than my share.
The past two seasons I have been fishing more nymphs & soft hackle 
flies. I do not wade well any more so fish my high Mtn Kettle lakes from 
a toon, for all of the different specie of trout. Added a new pair of 
Apollo Bio Pro fins and love them. Might be a bit pricey but they work 
for me.
It is good to be back.

I use a hot spot on just about everything, including adding a red

I sat next to Aron Jasper at a show 2 years ago when he was just 
coming up with competition flies, and he raved about hot spots, so I 
took his advise and adapted some patterns.

This year we did less fishing trips, but did well when we got out.

I tie a blood-spot on some of mine. It's a guide-trick up here that
works pretty well at times, even on dries.

    Ashley:
    Try putting just a pinch of red in when you mix your dubbing.
    It will look like veins running thru the scud.
    Thank You,
