New to board

[Stonefly]

I'm new to the board but have been a friend of Byron's for years. Just recently was able to sign on with Paula's help. Thanks much.

I'd like to ask what y'all's experience has been fishing the slate colored stoneflies in the Smokies. I love seein' 'em but I've rarely had any success fishing dries to 'em. Recently saw a pretty cool western pattern with razor foam underwing etc -- a Skwala, though I don't think our bugs are Skwalas, are they? Anyway, I plan to tie up a few with modifications to match our bugs, and try 'em this year.

Thanks

Steve,

Welcome to the board old buddy! Paula said you called and wished me well. Glad to have you here. I don't know the answer to your question but I'm sure there are people on here who do. If you see any of our old buddies tell them Tyrone says Hey!

Byron

Hey Tyrone -

Wasn't sure if you'd want everyone to know that name
