$3 Dip
was my wingless wet fly of the day! It is a fly that I must have in my boxes.

It looks like a high capacity mag for the tactical fly fisherman.

Re: $3 Dip
Those look killer. I started tying the $3 Dip with a sparse wing of UV dubbing. Worked really well.

Ron,
My other heavier/flashier variation is the Bead Head Krystal Dip that I picked up about the same time from Kelly Galloup's site.

Love that locker of bugs.
What hook(s) are used on those flies?

I tie these on scud hooks from 14-18s.

Those are superb Bill.
One of my favorites and an absolute killer on the Crooked. I tie mine, no rib and with Clark's Stonefly yarn in a variegated rust color.

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

Thanks Carl, now you have me combing some AL's Rug Yarn to make some more!
I never bought Lee's book on tying with poly but watched him tie several times. What size 16's &18's? I will make some for Ron as well, I hope to be over there next week.

Re: $3 Dip
Wm, is there a chance you could post a closer in pic of one of your flies? One of us blind guys can't get a good enough look at it and when I enlarge it it's too blurry for me to make out.
thanks,
Bill
