Man would I like to join them! I'll be returning from NJ and at least I'm supposed to fish the Ken Lockwood gorge while I'm up there.
Paul Jr. has been fishing and requested some flies: Adams Parachute, Pale Morning Duns (PMD), and Elk hair Caddis. I tied three types of caddis this afternoon to send along with Paul.
Another fine mess
The first ones are Light Caddis tied with a yellow body, tan elk hair tail & wing and light ginger hackle. I tied them on a #12 Mustad dry fly hook.
Next I tied a #14 Brown Caddis using brown deer hair, peacock herl body and palmered brown hackle.
I saved the best for last...The Woodchuck Caddis tied on a #16 Mustad dry fly hook.
Made with Woodchuck tail & wing, and a Woodchuck fur body with brown palmered hackle and collar.
Not a bad way to spend the afternoon!

Are you sure you're not using nose hairs to tie these flies?
Hi there
I was totally captivated by your blog page. Kept me wanting to keep on reading more. If anyone's looking for a charter boat or fishing in texas here's a website. I will put you on my texas fishing blogs page if you would like to exchange links.
