FLYJUNKIESFLYFISHING- the DARK MAGGIE... October 18, 2009Well It's Now Fall, and for a great many of us, Our Thoughts turn to pursuing Steelhead.

I haven't targeted Steelhead in a number of years and This Year the u […]noreply@blogger.com (Dean Endress)

- Fryingpan River in December December 11, 2009Many anglers think the fly fishing season ends around October, but I beg to differ in Colorado! Fly Fishing in the winter months can and has been the most productive for many fishermen. Being the first humans at 11 am to Walk into arguably the most famous tail water in Colorado is not only a thrill, but a TREAT.

- Smutting Shuttle December 20, 2009Small flies can save the day. When tying in the #24 and below sizes I very much like the use of CDC. There's little weight from such a small hook and, as a result, just a small amount of CDC will keep these floating all day.Here's an example:Hook: Varivas 2300 #28Thread: Synton 0.05 x2, oliveTail: 2 strands DNA Frosty FibreAbdomen: Tying threadRib: […]dave.wiltshire1@googlemail.com (Dave Wiltshire)
