Fly Assortment

Mark – SIR!!

The Sensei was unable to write to you  He is in the Far East with family for Christmas so He asked me to write to you!!

First, I’ve had “hundreds” of laughs (at my expense) on our “story” when after lunch you told me you retired as MGen!! Hope your ears weren’t ringing.

Now, yes, we have fished this area (River of life farms). It has truly changed since the flood of a few years ago. Reports say it has not come back like it was once BUT I feel the trout have not left town altogether.  We haven’t fished it since the flood. The number one fly back then was the “rubber-legged stonefly”. Easy to tie. Supposedly it is the only river with stoneflies in Missouri . I’m out of town now but back in town after the 27th. I can tie some for you since I did smack a General around all morning (my bad – ?).

Give me a call sometime in the next week and I’ll see what I can do. Besides that the normal flies for Missouri should be good but these trout were stocked last in the 60s and are very tough to catch – need to be on your game!!
