Re: [VFB] Book recommendation
Hi Mike, Ralph Cutter is a favorite writer here also. I was reading the Fish Food book this morning. Ralph writes a column for each issue of the California Fly Fisher magazine. The Fish Food book is a collection of past articles. Many of Cutter's observations about aquatic insects and fish feeding behavior are based upon many hours underwater using scuba gear and snorkel equipment. Direct observation makes his opinions particularly interesting. For example, one of his favorite techniques is to rub powdered fly dryer (like Shimazaki Dry Shake) into natural fibers in flies like the Bird's Nest. That creates a bubble sheath around the fly that matches naturals very well. You can see more of Ralph and Lisa Cutter's works here. http://www.flyline.com/ Wes Wada Bend, Oregon On Tue, Apr 6, 2010 at 3:45 PM, Michael Bliss wrote: > I am just completing a book called Fish Food by Ralph Cutter.

I am just completing a book called Fish Food by Ralph Cutter. It is a common man's book on entomology in the streams and lakes. The author is very witty and fun to read. I have very much enjoyed the book. I think I will go back now and skim it for his ideas and pattern suggestions. If you are looking for this type of read I recommend it highly.

Re: [VFB] book & comments, DVDs, Zap-a-gap, WD-40
Thank you, Alan Di Somma Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than everyone else looks? http://www.azflyfishing.net/ - Original Message - From: Don Ordes To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, January 18, 2010 9:43 AM Subject: Re: [VFB] book & comments, DVDs, Zap-a-gap, WD-40 Joyce, that info helps out a lot. 1. I saw the photos of what he was doing and you seem right on. Just extended furled fiber-tails with lots of different flies applied. Once anyone gets the rope dub down pat, the furling is another open door to some cool applications, not just another tail on the fly. I wish I could tell you all of the applications, but I'd be telling y'all what's on DVD #2. ;o) What I can say is that anything that will rope-dub will also furl (within useable limits), with thread core, mono core, wire core, or bite tippet core. Also, all of your dubbing materials, synthetics, furs, fibers, peacock, etc., become materials for furls. One hint (which I've attached photos on)- chopped up dubbing, like that green lamb's wool, will rope and furl and make great fuzzy, soft, flexible caterpillars, as thick as you want them and very durable (and tapered if you want). If you rope-dub on light wire, you can shape the 'pillar into a curl or bend that's not on the hook itself, and it will still be very flexible to the fish for feel, and still dense and 'fleshy'. 2. Looks like DVD#2 will turn out almost like DVD#1- so many techniques, not enough space/time to do patterns and recipes. I'm saw that some DVD's for sale that were in much longer format that the one I did. I'm checking into it to make sure the quality is the same. Do you guys think a 2, 3, 4 hour DVD#2 (for the same price) would be agood idea, sine it can be indexed like #1? Then I could do all of the techhniques and show lots of rope-dub finishing techniques to graduate into the fly bodies. Securing the rope-bodies to the hook was a problem for one guy at the show, so I showed him about 4 ways to secure the fly to a slick hook (shiny plated saltwater hooks are very slick). Which brings up item #3: That is a great idea Don. I was wishing that there was more on the first DVD. Don't get me wrong, I loved it and learned a lot. I could sit and watch for a longer period of time. I especially like the way it is indexed. If you make the next DVD a few hours, I'm sure no one would be disapointed or tired of watching. 3. Dave Whitlock has a new DVD out about using Zap-a-gap on flies. He gave me one, but I haven't had the chance to look at it yet. He got with the Z-A-G company and made up little applicator bottles specially designed for fly-tiers. I have about 4 of them so far, and I'm thinking uf using it for anchoring flies that tend to slip backwards on the new very slick hooks. Don't have much problems with the old bronzed Mustads- rougher finish. Dave Whitlock uses the ZAG instead of whip finishing on the flies that I saw him tie. He also recomends taking a file and scoring a notch on the top side of a hook before tying on dumbell eyes for a Clouser Minnow and then using ZAG. 4. I've used Super-glue gel for my big deceiver flies to attach the eyes, but they seemed to have a smell long after the glue dried. So I seal all the heads and eyes with vinyl cement, which makes them more durable and seals in the SG smell. The vinyl cement has no detectable smell after two weeks. Do you have that smell after a couple of weeks with the ZAG? My lure-fishing experience tell me to give them a shot of WD-40 before fishing, to hide the human scents, but not to 'flavor' the fly (illegal in many areas). It works with Mackinaw trolling flies, so it should work with trout through marlin flies also. Oil-related smells permeate the water- so fish are used to smelling them. Problem is, some fly materials react to the oil, and then degrade. Don't know which ones they are until it's too late. Add that to materials reacting to the sun and salt, and many materials just don't hold up in the real world- especially holographic streamer fibers.

Looks like DVD#2 will turn out almost like DVD#1- so many techniques, not enough space/time to do patterns and recipes. I'm saw that some DVD's for sale that were in much longer format that the one I did. I'm checking into it to make sure the quality is the same. Do you guys think a 2, 3, 4 hour DVD#2 (for the same price) would be agood idea, sine it can be indexed like #1? Then I could do all of the techhniques and show lots of rope-dub finishing techniques to graduate into the fly bodies. Securing the rope-bodies to the hook was a problem for one guy at the show, so I showed him about 4 ways to secure the fly to a slick hook (shiny plated saltwater hooks are very slick). Which brings up item #3: 3. Dave Whitlock has a new DVD out about using Zap-a-gap on flies. He gave me one, but I haven't had the chance to look at it yet. He got with the Z-A-G company and made up little applicator bottles specially designed for fly-tiers. I have about 4 of them so far, and I'm thinking uf using it for anchoring flies that tend to slip backwards on the new very slick hooks. Don't have much problems with the old bronzed Mustads- rougher finish. 4. I've used Super-glue gel for my big deceiver flies to attach the eyes, but they seemed to have a smell long after the glue dried. So I seal all the heads and eyes with vinyl cement, which makes them more durable and seals in the SG smell. The vinyl cement has no detectable smell after two weeks. My lure-fishing experience tell me to give them a shot of WD-40 before fishing, to hide the human scents, but not to 'flavor' the fly (illegal in many areas). It works with Mackinaw trolling flies, so it should work with trout through marlin flies also. Oil-related smells permeate the water- so fish are used to smelling them. Problem is, some fly materials react to the oil, and then degrade. Don't know which ones they are until it's too late. Add that to materials reacting to the sun and salt, and many materials just don't hold up in the real world- especially holographic streamer fibers.

Re: [VFB] book & comments, DVDs, Zap-a-gap, WD-40
Joyce, that info helps out a lot. 1. I saw the photos of what he was doing and you seem right on. Just extended furled fiber-tails with lots of different flies applied. Once anyone gets the rope dub down pat, the furling is another open door to some cool applications, not just another tail on the fly. I wish I could tell you all of the applications, but I'd be telling y'all what's on DVD #2. ;o) What I can say is that anything that will rope-dub will also furl (within useable limits), with thread core, mono core, wire core, or bite tippet core. Also, all of your dubbing materials, synthetics, furs, fibers, peacock, etc., become materials for furls. One hint (which I've attached photos on)- chopped up dubbing, like that green lamb's wool, will rope and furl and make great fuzzy, soft, flexible caterpillars, as thick as you want them and very durable (and tapered if you want).

They stayed at Pond's resort..and i think it was one of those girls that gave the book to Misa for a gift...or somethin' like that. i remember we all got together, (the same gang of girls and their better halves), for a dinner party in Philly exactly one year later to hang out. And they served this one and only Grisle, that one of them had caught on the trip.flash frozen and brought home on dry ice. Somebody did somethin' to it with lemon juice and we all ate it, as an appitizer. was GOOD too...although i felt a bit quilty eating something that should of been returned to the waterbut what's a fella to do? It was already dead. i remember being inspired that night in Philly too.because the guy who was the husband of the lady who's house we ate at, took us up to his tyin'/tackle room and showed us all kinna cool "Stuff."
