Here’s mine. Keeps those pesky little ones off the line.
DonO From: Pete Gramp Sent: Saturday, July 04, 2015 4:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [VFB] Looking for new #12-14 hopper/cricket patterns There's an area of Maine, USA that I'll be fishing this summer where the adjacent farmlands are supposed to be harvested just a week prior to my fishing. Even though I can't wade this go of it (and it's "bugging" me that's the case), I figure that the hoppers and/or crickets will make their typical migration down to the water because of the farms' harvests, so I should be tying up the same-sized terrestrials as past years. Not that past years' patterns didn't work well (namely a modified 'letort cricket' in pale yellow- rusty-olive with a dyed candy-apple-red hackle tail, and then a pink-craft-store-foam 'baby boy hopper', both relatively small, in size 12 to 14), but I always have a desire to try new patterns. Anyone have some favorite hopper or cricket patterns that might be new to me? I heard that one of the magazines (perhaps "fly fisherman"?) has a feature on Hoppers this latest issue, but I've yet to read / get it, and see if there are patterns in there. Happy Fourth of July to everyone in USA, -Pete (ZugbugPete) -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
