I have more mink than my wife! Got loads of mink from a furrier, and cutting
strips is easy. They only come in natural colors ranging from wh

Hi Neville,
Minkies at some point, but at the moment am stocking up on supplies to do a
bunch of original flies I call "Snake Eyes" -- been a very promising
bottom-bumping bugger this spring. Seems to get hits when nothing else is
producing.
Will be introducing the fly at a workshop I am holding

What could I trade you for a 4" piece of chartruese?
Buggs swears he saw a chartruese mink one time. So now I have to believe him.

Hi VFB!
Fishing season is finally getting untracked in Oregon and the Pacific NW.
Our spring has been historic, weather-wise. For starters, the coldest
month of May in recorded history. It's been windy and rainy and blowing and

Flies aren't due to the end of June now, so don't sweat it. I have some

Don't need a break from the heat. but a break from the rain might help.
Water looks like chocolate milk right now.
