    Hi Bob,

    You hit a category on my bucket list!?

    Never done any saltwater on the fly. Done a little deep sea fishing. I enjoyed this year fly fishing film tour that showcased a lot of saltwater adventures. One adventure that struck my interest was fly fishing for permit in the Keys.

    I would definitely be interested in a saltwater adventure on the fly!?

    Take care.

    Mike thanks for posting. I’m always looking for a stealthier indicator presentation. I have order the materials for The Dorsey, can’t wait to try it on the water.

    Tight lines.

    Bill, you are talking my language! I tend to fish very small midge & nymph patterns. Usually, when fishing a dry dropper or 2-3 flies nymphing technique. I go extremely small size 24 & 26 for my bottom fly. I barely fish anything larger then a size 18 when nymph fishing.  As spooner Matt said it is dreadful and challenging to tie small. I have midge jaws for my vice and wear magnifying glasses which help. I recently finished tying some size 24 & 26 scuds and ruby 2 midge patterns for a upcoming trip to Lake Taneycomo. It’s very practical for me to fish size 20,22,24 and 26 flies. Just call me crazy!?

    Spooner good luck in Colorado! Tell Greg & the Denver fellowship group and Landon hi for us. Please keep us posted of your trip.

    MEND, MEND,MEND!!!….Confused exactly when to mend upstream and downstream to prevent drag free presentation when using the nymphing with indicator technique.

    Reading the stream/river.

    Get better at identifying aquatic insect (matching the hatch).
