Yea Allen I've been tying away. Netcraft use to have the beads like they use on mepps. I know many years ago we use to go to Canada and that was the go to artificial so I made up enough for our whole group.

I've been buying a lot of stuff from Netcraft over the past several weeks, but the bulk of that was for spinner baits.  Dick, you have WAY more tying stuff than I do right now.

Mark I think I was fine till I brought it back in the house and had all that loose Foam so I got another container for that. I really think I might be done. If I wanted to tie the same things all the time I think I could get rid of a lot but when I do learn to tie these different things I want to know I have most of the stuff to do it with. Now all I have to do is increase and knowledge base and practice my tying of different things. Most everything I tie I give away anyway but if keeps me out of trouble and close to the wife and I enjoy both.

Thanks Steve looks like the fish will have a hard time leaving it alone. Looks good and fishy for sure.

Comment by Mark Stine on April 4, 2013 at 12:50pm

Dick, I think there is a fine line between hoarding and just being prepared were you into scouting? Doesn't appear to be all that much after all it still fits neatly in the area, if you don't need it right now you might in the future.  What if the economy collapses and we have to live on the fish we catch?!!!! Why I have stuff in my fly tying cache that I can't even identify other than it's fur or feathers of some kind. My nemesis is EBAY, any one know what you can tie with buffalo fur? LOL!

Hey Tooty you guys got me started you and Greghopper. I'm like a jucky if it looks pretty or I just like how it looks I get it. I really think its a bad thing living this close to Janns Netcraft they got lots of neat stuff and lots of my money.
