Spoke to HG a little bit ago and she apologizes for not keeping things updated, but her dial-up and such is giving her fits. She will post as soon as she gets things ironed out.

No hurry on my end, but I am starting to feel like I've somehow gotten cross-ways with an Elf, which we all know is major trouble........ <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Recon trip on the schedule for today, BTW, along with a winter Trico hatch in the afternoon. I'll have to do it backwards, that is, Blastandcast.

Elves are really good at skirting the subject <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> You'll know when you get them which are mine, they'll make great decorations <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif" alt="" />

I did include a Parachute Stimulator for HG to take a picture of to post and I'll be happy to give the details if anyone wants them.

Hey guys!! Sorry I have been gone....my computer decided to take the last week and half off of work....but she is up and running....FINALLY!!!!
I am waiting to hear from Blaine and Bootfishing.....then it looks like a roll, once I recieve flies from AKGrayling, Elf, and Hunterbug.
The flies I have recieved are AWESOME.....I think everyone is gonna dig them!
I'll keep everyone posted.....and I will, hopefully, get them out by the third week of Jan (a little late I know...but I think everyone got busy with the Holidays, and such)....

My flies are going out Express Mail tomorrow--Post Office wasn't open today.
We'll call my pattern "Blaine's Flashy Bugger." I have caught rainbow trout, steelhead, brown trout, cutthroat trout, largemouth bass, crappie, channel cats, bluegill, walleye, and pickerel on this fly in Oregon, Arkansas, and Texas fishing in Rogue River, the Little Red River, and farm ponds. It works from a dead drift, streamer style, and stripped; in still, slow, medium, and fast water. I like dark olive best, but I caught the steelhead on a black version. It is weighted and works with a floating line or a sink tip line.
If you are getting hits but not hooking up, then shorten the tail a little.

My feet are draggging but I'm almost done......sorry for the delay folks
