thanks for the tutorial... you guys kill me...really!
You're all like...yeah I'll whip one up, take some photos, and post some instructions:rolleyes:

Takes me longer to pee...see what you have to look forward to:biggrin:

Nice Tye, been checking my supplies...looks like a trip to the fly shop tomorrow for some red, pink, and tan Chen...shhh just don't tell my wife:cool:

[Wade Blevins]

I am just curious. Have you caught a ton of fish on the ball? Does it produce more than the traditional or two tones? Headed to some trophy trout water and always looking for something new. This could be the ticket.
any info would be a great help.
Thanks,
Wade

Tarheel. Way to jump in. I have not read you on here all week. I was beginning to worry something had happened to you. Nice tie on that worm. I like the way it looks better than the traditional.

It tends to catch stockers more than wild ones. Ya Tarheel I thought you had gotten swallowed by a Davidson river bow:biggrin:

[Tarheelflyfishing]

Yeah, exams and new classes at school have swallowed me alive...I think I'm back...:biggrin:
