I've been concentrating over the past several months on midges, soft hackles, beadhead hares ears and pheasant tail mymphs, ect..from size 12 to 22... Tied up a couple of clousers a few nights ago with fox tail to fish for brown trout. These on size 8 hooks..Amazing how easy it is to tie a good looking fly on this size hook after you've been working on the minature ones for awhile.....Spent the past week out on the White River in Arkansas and caught cutthroats, browns, and rainbows. Gonna try the flats again next fri or sat if weather cooperates. :D

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark
