DUBBN, Howdy;

Great lookin' set of flys.

Likin' the way you think about "expanding" the color choises
merely by changing thread color.
Also gives the look of depth to the fly as well.

I like your round dubbing brush tool (last photo). I have wanted one of them for a while. After seeing your photo, I went to my bench and made one. I'm waiting for the glue to dry.

Very nicely done. The proportions are what I think of when Leisenring describes tying his soft hackle nymph patterns. Thanks for sharing Wayne.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

The way I fished today I'd think twice about going with me Mark.

I floated the Roaring Fork and managed 5 fish ALL day. As well as I did last Sunday and Tuesday...I did that bad today.

In all those flys, you'd think I could get a pattern that worked on more than one fish.

The alternative? Doing chores for the Nazi? Guess it was a good day after all. ;)
