[VFB] First fly I tied
My first fly was a bream popper. For my 12th birthday I got a Herter's Fly Tying Kit with all the tools, plus a bunch of feathers and an assortment of hooks. But . . . . there weren't any corks, which I needed for my bream popper. Mom had an old bottle of Castor Oil, which had a small cork in it. There was only a teaspoon left, so she poured it out and gave me the cork. ( Yes, I know, cork stoppers in medicine bottles are way before most of your times.) :-P Anyway, I tied up a neat little bream fly, painted it yellow, with black doll's eyes glued on. Caught a lot of bream ( shellcrackers, bluegills, etc.) Have a Goodun! JIMMY D -- º ** JIMMY D.

[VFB] Re: QUOTE FOR THE DAY - Brown Fuzzy
Yeah, thanks Jimmy for looking that one up. I will be teaching a couple of the sessions of the local fly club's fly tying classes, and wanted to use the quote for its 'perspective'. It is good to know where it comes from. Wes Wada Bend, Oregon --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.
