Re: [VFB] Your Dumbbell Eyes, You
Wes- a thread base is not required but you can tie eyes over a thread base if desired. I just tie the eyes on with the thread I am using to tie the fly. I have tied eyes on with 3/0 14/0 ,Gellspun, Kevlar , monofilament, etc. Just make sure you wrap the (thread wedge) under the eyes wrap under the eyes overs the hook shank several wraps. The wedge tightens the figure eight wraps. It is easy and fast.

[VFB] TEST II
Funny thing. I can send and receive, but when I hit reply to type an answer, the damn thing won't let me type, cut, copy, or paste a message. At this point I'll be receiving on Webmail and responding on Netscape e-mail. Not a terribly huge problem, just aggravating. Had this happen once before and it ironed itself out in a couple days. In case you're wondering, the reason I'm not using netscape e-mail for both sending and receiving is because on Netscape, I can send only, but cannot receive. (That's why I'm using webmail. DUH!!) JIMMY D P.S. I've tried Earthlink support and they can't help me. Maybe I need to get a new ISP. ><º> * JIMMY D.

Re: [VFB] Catskill Dry Fly swap 2011
Peggy: What qualifies a dry as a Catskill dry? and how could someone find pics of these so that they could decide if they would chooses to participate? Larry Johnson Springville, Utah >>> "Peggy Brenner" 2/13/2011 4:58 PM >>> Each year I try to host this swap, and each year I see much improvement in the Catskill style dry's we get! I've taken each set, with the location of the tyer, to show off at the Catskill Fishing Center and Museum and each year some of the premier tyer's of this genre have a great time looking, and we get some good comments. But, they also have a great time looking at the different variations in the participants flies and where that tyer is from. So let's make it 12 for the Catskill Flies Swap 2011 and when I tie in the Museum in August at the Jubilee celebration I'll put out each years swap for display. Deadline June 1, in time for dry fly season in the Catskills. -- Peggy Brenner http://pbandj.us/SixSistersFlybox/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.

Re: [VFB] sowbug
Gary, Sorry you're going to miss the 'Bug'. So is that your bride or someone else's? Just kidding. I understand- I've done it too. (The father walks the bride up the aisle, and the husband walks her down the isle. The transfer is made- hubby is stuck with her. You'll know someone's made a mistake if, after the wedding, the father dances back down the aisle while clicking his heels in jubilation and yelling 'who-hoo'!) You must stand to benefit if she is a good cook. So is that 1st-hand or 2nd-hand invite meals?

Re: [VFB] Bad knee scuttles Sowbug plans
Sorry you will miss it. I will miss seeing you. Rick From: Tom Davenport To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Sun, February 13, 2011 5:20:36 PM Subject: [VFB] Bad knee scuttles Sowbug plans My left knee, which was banged up in a horse riding accident when I was in my 20's, has been gimpy since the last of its cartilage went AWOL about three years ago. I have been postponing the inevitable knee replacement with cortisone shots every three months. I even waited an extra month before getting the last one to increase the odds of the knee being good for Sow Bug. But this time it didn't work at all; the knee has had it, and is "telling me it is time to get 'er done" as the doctor said it would someday. The earliest the doctor can schedule me for surgery is April, with the preliminary work up being done right smack dab in the middle of the Sow Bug schedule. I'm sorry I won't be able to join the fun. I'll notify the person in charge about my change in plans. All the best, Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.

Re: [VFB] Bad knee scuttles Sowbug plans
Tom, Done that been there with the shots. Had the Right knee replaced twice and now it needs replacement again. The left knee has to be replaced too. Planned on getting this done next month but will hold off till later in the year if I can. Did not want to miss the Sowbug as the surgery would be during that week. I will bear with it till after Sowbug but I don't have to travel a long distance like you would.
