Re: Why Use Silk Thread?
I like it for tradition, and translucent effects. I don't use it on most flies I tie. I do like it very much on traditional patterns such as soft hackle, spiders, flymphs etc... Some flies just look better to me with real silk. I never understood the waxing part of the silk, until I started coming t...

Re: Spider Booklet - Rolling Rivers
I didn't get that one. I did get another spider pdf from Donald though. It is called Spiders on Straight Eyed Hooks. (or Rolling Rivers pdf) I can send you that one if you want it! Donald, you may have sent this to me with a different name, but I don't think so.

Re: Hangman Spider
That is a fish getter for sure. I can't seem to stop looking at it. Lovely work, but it looks like the fish here would eat that up about now. I like everything about this one for sure.

Re: Hooks
I had that one, but I appreciate you putting it on here. I wish they would update the Kamasan hook numbers. The one I have is not updated either. Thank you for posting these.

Re: Variations on a theme (Assortment of POP Flies)
I guess I missed this thread before. Excellent flies Ray. Did you use head cement or something over the baby legs for the rib? I like all the flies presented here. Swellcat your fly will no doubt catch warm water fish too. Great job. I need to try this pattern....
