What's everybody been tying?
« on: February 02, 2021, 04:11:00 PM »
With the rivers in the mess they are, what's been on the vice for you guys? I played around with some Lake stuff for a bit. Didn’t take long to realize that Center Hill is a tough enough nut to crack on conventional gear, and on the fly, it’s just stupid. Except,,,, Gar and Drum. There are few places I’ve found where huge Gar are aplenty and Drum are frequently cruising the gravel bars in search of craws and whatever else they can find. So I’ve been working on those flies, and also some Trout stuff. Had some great Trout trips last year. If you can find the right water that’s not being hammered with people,, it’s pretty good. So I have been tying some MikeA (as Dan Powers used to call them) PT’s and the usual tailwater midges. And of course the  Blue Vein Throbbers that the Craigs like so well..  :)

We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men – not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate, and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular
