Im not sure where I should of posted this. The only fly rod I have ever had was one my dad gave me over twenty years ago. Me and him both decided to put it in retirement. It has got a nice comfy spot on dads workshop wall. Now that I'm really starting to like tying flies as well as my jigs and...

My dad does quite a bit of pokin around in Antique shops and flea markets. I told him to keep an eye out for cool wooden Fly/jewelry/tool boxes with small drawers. He told me the other day he found one and would give it to me for my birthday. I was thinkin well you could of surprised me with it...

I Had the house to myself for a little while tonight. I enjoyed my quiet time by turning some music up loud and tying some trout stuff for me and my son. I kinda got in a groove and tied a half dozen of each of these. These first two are tied on #12 Dai-Riki #270 hooks with 5/32 brass beads...

I was wondering if someone could help me Identify these two materials. This is out of a whiting variety pack. Not sure what kind of hackle it is. I love it and when I run out and go to buy more I'm not sure what it is called. What is this type of chenille called? I got a ton of this stuff...

I had some "Mean Minner" heads that I messed up a little experimenting with curing eyes into PP. Thought I'd use them to tie up a variety of boolie patterns I've been thinking bout and see which one I liked the best. With exception of one on a 1/32 # 6 all are tied on a CAT 1/48 "Mean Minner"...

Found this nut cracker bowl at a garage sale awhile back. I finally got around to drilling some more holes in it. It makes a pretty cool tool caddy. It has felt on the bottom so it can be spun around pretty easy if needed.

I was going through a box of my msc woodworking projects and found this lil gem. I originally carved it to make a big Grasshopper fly/plug but I messed it up when i glued it on the hook (hints the hump on the belly) and just threw it in the box. Anyway decided to paint and tie it as a baitfish fly.

Spent the weekend fishing my buddy's farm pond. We didn't land any of the of his BIG bass. We did however have a blast catching a ton of smaller bass and a mess of bluegills. Caught a handful of bluegill and bass on a black Auto and a Chartreuse hackle feather jig. The majority of the fish were...

Been tinkering with a couple more topwater lures. Took the time to finish them so I could fish with them this weekend. All are hand carved and sanded with exception of the detail work on two of them were done with dremel. Popper: Balsa wood: Painted with spraypaint and coated with Epoxy...

Was thinking about making some inline spinners again last night. Just read a thread from AtticaFish on painted spoons so of course now I'm thinking bout Spoons too. These are large size hooks in the pic but they were only ones I had on hand. I think weedless hooks like this all dressed up would...

Added something to my tying desk today. I think it is a nice addition and Improvement. Can ya see it? Ya might have to look close (Maybe Not) :D

Spent a little time tonight helping Blind jigs See. For those of you who add 3d eyes to Large quantities of jigs in one sitting, I tip my hat to you. I maybe did close to a hundred before my own eyes became GOOGLY.
