FLYMPH FORUM

That is a jaw dropper there for sure. My gosh, I have no words for the beauty. There just are none. Flawless beauty, that's all I got.

Thanks Kelly L. I'm glad you like the fly

Donald-
Hmmm a softie aye? Thanks for the heads up on the Scottish meaning. seeing I'm a born in Germany Aussie living in London (There's no hope!) I think I'll knowingly carry on calling them softie's without feeling too worried about it

Oh & btw Kars.....he does have "big ears."

Willowhead-
Oh oh, you have confirmed my worst nightmare! I was hoping he didn't, so as not to offend the Jedi Master! They say time heals all wounds, at least I hope so

Ray-
Jar Jar Binks! Come on Ray wouldn't you rather be known for having hairy ears, bad grammar, smelling like you live in a swamp than being completely annoying? Your stuck with the Yoda title buddy, even if your wife agrees for entirely different reasons (I like her, she's feisty and makes me laugh).

I'm glad you shared Muz's flies with the troops, thanks for making me aware of the link. I wasn't aware of it earlier.

Me too. That is wonderful to see. Cool fly.

Great fly!

Glad your becommin' a regular here Kars.......are you refering to Muzzy, the Salmon fly tyer from up in the northeast? The guy is one of my favorite tyers on the planet, and a very nice cat. i've had the chance to watch him tye a number of times and got to hang with him quite a bit at the Somerset and Danbury shows. He's got such a great eye..... Hopefully you'll get to come over here and hang some time. i have a Salmon fly of his framed here you'd love to see.

ooppss , oh well, i went and double checked to be sure............ ........i remember those flies from a while back.
Well, if you ever get a chance to check out Muzzy's (Ed Muzzerole[sp?]) flies, definately do so.

Smokn'! I like your style. Man that is a gorgeous fly.

You be so cute Kelly........in two sentences you contridict yourself so eloquently. Your, "My gosh, i have no words for the beauty." ARE the words.....then you say there are none. Ya gotta love it.

i like that spellin'....."contridict."

w-h, Howdy;

Don't be makin' fun of the way she spurlled it...

just done it phon-et-ic-ly... with a Texas twang...

Sorry Kelly couldn't pass it up..

hank

hank, snap out of it.....she didn't spell it that way..............i did.

Alright, you guys settle down. What I meant was, I don't have the right words for the way I wanted to express my thoughts about the fly/flies. If I say, that's all I got...it means I wish I had more to say, but there just aren't the right descriptive words coming to my mind. If I say it's a beauty..but that didn't seem a high enough compliment, then I will say something else like the above statement that Mark was teasing me about. Carry on.

I just reread my statement. I was thinking about it, and typing at the same time. Plus who knows how many flies I had seen previous to that one. That actually was a very high compliment coming from me...very high indeed.
