Alright--victory for the home team! Congrats REE. I thought about bidding, thinking it could be good to have a 2nd copy that would be great for the next Secret Santa Swap. I'm glad I didn't drive up the price. I'm sure the seller is surprised/disappointed!

Re: Leisenring for sale
So, the opening bid of $22.00 was the eventual winner; what a steal for that person! I hope it was a Flymph Forum member. A few years ago, $100.00 was a good price for this book.

Re: "Drinking Straw Wrangler" (DIY tying tool)
Hi Dana,
About your advice on the tea: Is that Barry's Tea (Gold) in the red box or Barry's Tea (Irish Breakfast) in the green box you're recommending?
Thanks- Ken

Re: Leisenring for sale
Ray, Perhaps a look at the Contents page from the 1971 edition will answer my question. It appears the later edition has the 12 chapters from the original book (Part 1, The Art of Tying The Wet Fly) and then 3 additional chapters (Part 2, The Art of Fishing The Flymph). Does your 1941 edition consis...

Re: A few of Doug's Soft Hackle Gem's
Doug,
What material did you use to dub the body on your cream flymph? I presume the tail is wood duck flank; is that true?
Thanks- Ken
