Folks: I have a question.. It is question # 1,876,594 for Me ROFL.... It has to
do with the marabou on Woolly Buggers mostly, but any fly that has a marabou
tail.. For example, i go out, fish a wooly bugger for a while, then, change
flies, put that fly in one of my plastic fly boxes...(and I lay them in the
boxes (or try to) as flat and straight as possible to dry out...Now, this past
week, I was gonna use a Chili Pepper, and the marabou tails on every one of
them was dry, hard, and crooked.. I dipped them in water, and the tails still
would not straighten out like when they were tied...Do I need to just lay them
on the deck part of my boat and let them dry BEFORE putting them back in the
fly box??? Or is there a secret to it??? Oh, and I was watching a Poul
Jorgenson DVD a little while ago, and he gave me a good idea... That man used
more salvia to tie flies than anybody I've ever seen LOL... So, I though.. I
need to see what the flies look like WET.. Cause that is how the fish will see
them..We tie flies, and look at it in the vise, and say "man, that will be a
pretty fly".. But wet, it may be the ugliest fly ever LOL...Thanks, Chuck
