MAN!! Am I ever so envious of this guy....John Barr!  This guy is a retired 
tooth yanker from Colorado and from what I have read, one hell of a fly 
fisherman and fly designer.Would'nt it be great to design a fly and have it 
acheive maximum popularity? Well anyway, there are some really good articles 
out recently on the Copper John. Great articles with great pics and 
recipes......that is what we fly dunkers need! Try the latest issue of  FLY 
FISHERMAN magazine(Sept.2002) ...there is an article titled Barr's Hopper 
Copper Dropper ..great article. But my favorite article was in the Spring 
2002 issue of Fish & Fly. The article was titled Super Nymphs . VERY 
informative. It gave the history, recipes and good pics of the Copper John 
and some good pattern variations. Hope this helps and TIGHT LINES!
