Seen note by Pacres' the other day also. Interesting.. the "Twelve Flies of Xmas Theme". (Gotta make a note of that one!). http://flytyer.wordpress.com/2007/12/20/8-royal-wulffs/ http://buckeyeflyfishers.com/fly_tying/royal_wulff/royal_wulf.htm (Above Link Goes Into: Step By Step) Anyone search 'Royal Wulff' in YouTube.com yet? I suspect there might be a video demo there, and or, look in the on demand section of 'Angler's Art'- PBS series here - http://www.kwsu.org/KWSU_NWPR/OnDemand/OnDemand.aspx. And... finally.. there is an actual FAOL tying demo here: http://www.flyanglersonline.com/flytying/beginners/part19.html Aye, long tyes.. but a worthy pattern. I never leave home without them. =) LT

The nice thing about that site is the detail each of the steps goes into. The awkward part is there are so many steps. So an FAOL or other more consolidated page would print better, but might not give you the detail. To answer your other question, for the swap I would worry more about the color of the materials than getting them "right". As you pointed out, depending on the pattern recipe you use there will be different materials listed. So for the wings, either white calf tail or calf body hair will work, neatly stacked and evenly divided. The body hair, which is straighter, will stack easier, but either could be "correct". Same for the tail. I think moose hair is the most commonly called for, but dark brown deer or elk hair will work, too. For a fly to fish, just getting close usually works. The fish don't care as much as tiers do :) JMHO Kev > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [VFB] Royal Wolf > Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 01:54:41 -0600 > > Kevin, Allan, Anybody: Can you tell me if there is a way to print out all > the steps to the flies at Troutflies.com/tutorials in a continuous > printout???
