This fly tied this way .....

.... gave me one of my few multi fish days when I first started chasing Salmo Salar...

I just dug it out of the archives and tied a few for the box. A low water 'Smurf'.

Of course back then I had to buy them...

Just finishing up a few more staples for the old fly box...

'Whip it'

A few orange and white ones and I'll be good to go!

A few random pictures from the last few weeks...

The changes at Quarryville:

Striper in front of the Den:

Some structure at the springtime honey hole:

Low friggin' water!

Moose or dog?

After a long friggin' hike!

After a long day...

Things are looking up!

We're heading north on Wednesday or Thursday this week and the rivers are raising! Life is good! With any luck we'll see some bright fish move in with this raise. *fingers crossed*

Condensing fly boxes...

After a long and difficult hike into and out of a very inaccessible part of the LSW, I've decided to do something about the unnecessary number of fly boxes I lug around with me... Here's a start:

Tying a few flies, hoping for rain....

Getting a little behind on blogging, I have a bunch of pics from last weekend that i'll add sometime this weekend.. Here are a few 'beacons' I managed to get tied this week:
