Yeah, I realized after I sent it that some may misunderstand. I said Gray Drake Hackle in the note. I wasn't talking about Denny's stuff, it was all professionally packaged. I looked at Denny's stuff, and while it was very very nice, most was not what I would use in my tying (Bass and Saltwater). It would be wasted on me. The other guy had some very interesting colors.
I caught a couple of trout in the river, but what I was interested in was hitting the Buffalo on the way south. Well, after a couple of wrong turns, I didn't have as much time as I had hoped, and struck out for the little time I was there - the 374 crossing. I had hit Crooked Creek at a couple of locations the night before with the same results. I would say that they are wadeable/floatable now, and next time I'm bringing a boat. Fourteen hours later and a couple of tornado near misses in Oklahoma, and I rolled in home very tired.
I appreciate your hospitality while I was there and really enjoyed the show. Shoulda pushed harder to get there in the past and will in the future.

Jack,
I just want to mention, the guy with the loose hackles was not Conranch
Hackles, it was another hackle dealer.
How did you do Monday morning on the river before you left. Matt came
over to the house and Denny and I had a nice visit with him.
