Yeah, this is true, cause I can't see (even with My reading glasses) to tie on a size 16 or 18 LOL.. Just had the hooks and wanted to tie them "Because they are there" LOL, Chuck   ----- Original Message ----- From: jerry goldsmith To: vfb@troutnet.com Sent: Sunday, April 23, 2006 12:46 PM Subject: RE: [VFB] Tying on #16 and smaller hooks From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bart: Well, for example, a #16 Chili Pepper..       Chuck   Of course you can always follow Goldsmith's 2nd and 3rd "Doctrines of flyfishing."   2. Never allow a hook smaller that a 12 to occupy your vise.   3.If the stream you are fishing requires something smaller that a  #12 hook or smaller than 5x tippet, be sure to fish close to a good hearted fellow, with keen eyesight and a full fly  box.   This would be funny if it were not so true.  OK !!  It is funny even though it is true.   JG
