William - An Ugly Stick (just kidding)

William - What would you trade for one of those spools of blue Pearsall's? That stuff hard to find...

Elegant pattern, Carl...Superbly tyed and photographed.

Lovely! I bet it will look even nicer when it is wet.

Handsome fly, and no doubt very effective.

*chuckle*

What a great read! Makes me want to first head to the vice and then get on the water. I am enjoying your posts very much.

I have a couple questions about your raft. Is the bottom of the raft open at the front? In two of the pictures it looks like you are standing up. I am wondering if you can stand in the front of the raft. What model Kodiak raft is that? Looks like a nice set-up. Nevermind - I found it. I think it is ...

Carl - That looks like a "capital killer"! I am definitely going to add some of these to by fly box. Wonderful fly.

The bottom fly is my favorite. Just love how the colors play together and the proportions.

Mardi Gras!!! I wish I could get me a piece of King Cake. Mmmmm.
