Just when you thought you'd already seen the "Best of Dougsden", he sends me these:

Doug, I could see a thousand of these combo's and never get tired of the simplicity and attractiveness of them. These are spot on.

thanks Bill.

You folks are spoiling me! Thank you so much for the kind words and comments about my tying. Wait until you see me fish! You will want me to quit flailing about and go back to tying!
Is anyone up for the receipes? As usual, I forgot! I will try and post them this evening!
Bill, as always, thanks!

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
