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 here in December, so no photos or recipe for now, sorry! Wes Here's a link to a Minkie. Lots of variations available on this fly. Note the great guard hairs in the mink strip. http://www.fishandfly.co.uk/flies/minky.html On Fri, Jun 11, 2010 at 10:09 AM, Neville Gosling <nev.gosl...@shaw.ca>wrote: > Are you planning to tie minkies? > > > Neville (Nev) Gosling > Greater Vancouver, > B.C.
