It would seem everyone is getting on the kool aid kick. We tied some small prawn or shrimp flies (The Red Francis) with Dick Talluer in our class today and he had dyed the quills he used for the fly in red kool aid. It was new to most of the class. I had to chuckle when he explained it. I thought of all of you and the wonderful information we share on this site. ;) Deb ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, March 22, 2003 3:32 PM Subject: [VFB] kool aid success
