I'm surprised with all the scroungers around here that no one offered to
take it off you hands... LOL So I will! LOL Tying has made me into some sort
of pack rat. I have so much "junk" around that MIGHT be used on a fly
pattern it's rediculous. I've stuff in boxes and drawers everywhere. LOL

Subject: [VFB] Hot Dogs and Hooks
Date: Sat, 07 Apr 2007 22:32:59 -0400
Listers,
OK, this is ON TOPIC and goes along with the subject lines. As I stated in
my reply to Jimmy and his snowfall, I bought materials and hooks on
Thursday with intentions of tieing a bunch during my up and coming hernia
operation and the down time afterwards. Today started some warm up and
I've tied 2 dozen size 10 Red Tag variants out of a box of 25 hooks. (see
my tie in to hot dogs - dogs in packs of 10 and buns in packs of 8). I
don't normally sit down and tie a box of the same or similar patterns that
often and I don't really notice the extra hook. But TODAY, I now have 4
sets of 1/2 doz each of the variants, leaving me the 1 hook left over. My
question is for the bulk or professional tiers -- what do you end up doing
w/the extra hook? Normally, if I were tieing for someone, I'd give them an
extra fly or keep that one for myself as a pattern; but the ones for today
were pretty much for my and my kids' use. Now I have 1 pattern with an
uneven amount. This lack of equality gnaws at my personal obsessive
compulsive disorder and is hard to tolerate - next time I might try the 5
patterns of 5, since that goes evenly into boxes of 25 and/or 50. HOWEVER,
it goes against the 3,6,12 quantities of tieing a pattern.
HELP!!!
Garry
