Hi Nev,
so true, the list has slowed down a lot.
However, it is also our responsibility to revive it a bit.
My fishing was slow this year for known reasons. One of my grandkids
took me out for fishing. Well, this 4 year old asked my a couple of
time, if we shouldn't go out and catch some fish. That's more precise.
He is now eager to ty some flies with me.
Tying season is ahead of us, so I'll intend to stock my boxes with my
hoppers, the blue (parachute) beetle and some EHCs.
However, I'm wondering if I shouldn't add something new to my arsenal.
For trout. Suggestions?

No wonder this site is not getting much traffic. I just did a search
for "The Virtual Flybox” and every virtual or non-vitual flbox is
there except VFB. There is a virtual flybox in Colorado with the same
name but nary a word about us. Maybe I should have searched for "Byard
Miller’s Virtual Flybox". Unfortunantly, since Byard lost interest in
maintianing the site, we seem to have slipped to the bottom of the
list or even right off! It it little wonder that we get little
interest from newcomers. It really is a shame.
Changing the subject, does anyone know or remember when thread maker
Gudebrod went out of business after losing a conract to supply dental
floss which it seems was keeping the company going. I lose track of
time but it must have at least 5 or more years ago. I recently
restored a Hardy split-cane rod and used a new spool of red Gudebrod
thread that I had but I ran out before finishing the rod and had to
pay a small fortune for 2x100 yard spools of scarlet thread to finish
the job and repace what I had used.
