Not a lot activity at work today. So I sat
reading all these saltwater, crayfish etc posts... which I normally just
skip, since I've never felt an interest in it. But now I did it and saw the one
with the link to the videos... so I watched them too. "Neat... what's the time?
I want to go home to the vise!!!"
When I got home I dug up the Congo hair I
bought 2 years ago and have never touched. Now I've tied my first saltwater fly. What did I learn?
On the next one I won't be too amitious when cutting the clumps
of hair I'm going to tie in, especially not on the hook size that I was
using (it wasn't exactly Marlin size). I saw it already after half of it
was tied... "Naahh, this isn't how it's supposed to be." But I continued just
for the heck of it... so this will be a Christmas tree decoration. It's
FAT!!!! I'll, of course, cut the dangerous bit off... to Make Teresa happy.
Personally I don't think it's needed. It's practically fish-proof.
Here we go again. With half the amount of
hair, a fish might be able to feel the steel part. ;o)
