Oh,I mean,yeah,course,obvious isnt it Ummm,heres one of my capes,just prior to tying,I always find it best to tie them on site,at the waters edge,fresher that way right?Just tie your hackles and cape onto a delicate 19/0 hook and let the breeze lift it out

Any pics of your vice and flies?
-
Obviously I am not going to go into exact details of how I treat my flys beforehand,otherwise there would be no mystique to it,we all have our own little quirks and foibles regarding the fine arts right Get out fishing much Chess?

You have to remember,he wrote that book in the 1930's before they had such subtle methods,we are progressing,I once caught 150+ trout in a few hours on my own,using nothing more complex than a carbon-fibre beachcaster,multiplier reel,and a trace of feathers,anyway,as I said,fishing later in the week
-
I am taking my "Lucky" rod,the green and pink one,never fails,and I have a 6'oz lead and the feathers ready

Not if your a tight fecker like me!!! Been in the building Trade for 24 years...self employed for 19 of em...best thing i ever done!...nothing worse than grafting to line some other feckers pocket! Most that say "theres more to life than money blah blah" are usually in my experiance lazy sods who just want an easy route through life...usally these people up to their necks in credit card and loan debt...f**k that!...learned early on in life that the only way forward for people like myself is hard graft...earn as much as ya can while your still fit and healthy...thats the name of the game!
