Oh boy, Ruard! You are really going to be ready for those Roscoe area trout. Very nice tan caddis patterns.

Oooooo.Ahhhhhhh. I am a sucker for tan caddis. I never thought of using Peacock for a head...That will be remedied soon.


Thanks Ruard

Love that first one.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

Ruard - PLEASE tye some extras. I need to borrow some of these from you, when we get to Roscoe. I'm not above begging... :D ;)

Terrific flies and photographs.

Only 116 days to Roscoe! :D

Ruard,
These patterns are fantastic!!! I really like the first one but the second is growing on me! I just cannot believe what you can do with hook, fur, and feather! Ray just wants to borrow some flies to replace the ones he loses in the trees and the bushes.....Love ya Ray!
Ruard, I don't know what else to say but Wow! Great job friend! Look out Roscoe trouts!
