He really is a great asset to fly fishing. A couple of years ago at one of the Outdoor/Boat/Hunting/Fishing Expo's Charles Meck was there and I bought one of his books. He and John Rohmer wrote the book. I later had John sign the book for me. It seems as though Charles is a "Snow Bird" and comes to Arizona to fish. Some how he and John got together and wrote " Arizona Trout Streams and their Hatches."

Subject: RE: [VFB] Tying Videos Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2009 19:37:41 -0600 of allllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the dubbings i have, the Arizona is my favorite. SPECIALLY the Simi Seal. it has the LONGEST fibers of any dubbing i've ever bought, which is PERFECT for me, since i love to pick out my bodies. For years i had to "blend" all my own dubbings (for artistic flies), because right out of the package they were always to "one thing." If you wanted a blended look to them.......you hadda blend them.......which was time consumming. actually the blending process is fun, but the Arizona is already blended. It comes with a nice "Mix" of colors in each color. So you can use it right outta the package if you like. i sometimes still blend it, lol. i was a big fan of SLF before i found Arizona. i've got a CRAP LOAD of dubbing to use up.....so i use it when doin' flies that will sell for less, or that will be donated, etc., etc. But the Arizona goes on the expensive hooks with the expensive beads, and the expensive gut eyes. NOW, to see this new line of dubbing he says he has.....and the word is, it's got even LONGER fibers........YES!!!!! Alan.....you must become one with the dubbing...........LMAO. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: phxflyt...@cox.net To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Subject: [VFB] Tying Videos Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2009 14:33:17 -0700 http://www.azflyfishing.net/thewall/?cat=5 Check out these two tying videos from john Rohmer of Arizona Fly Fishing. The products he is demoing are also on sale at his website. Just click on the "Home" and follow for the materials. I have most of the colors in the Diamond Braid. It is almost identical to the Simi Seal dubbing but it has been twisted together and forms a braid. I just hate to dub, so I use the braid. The flies turn out the same but I have to "scrub" a little bit more to get the fibers to pull out on the leach. if you want to tie the monnow you will have to use the dubbing.
