Just a short update

So in prep for the BWOs, I've got a dozen Parachute Adamseses in light olive ready to go. For my nymphs, I've also started tying Pheasant Tail nymphs. I absolutely despise tying them, but I'm set on getting better at it. This is the best I could do out of 6 flies today. Not great, but it'll get better. I made poor decisions on the hook and bead combo. It's a size 16, but only a 1x long shank instead of the recommended 2x. I'll skip the bead for the next half-dozen.

A horizontally challenged Pheasant Tail.
Meh. Mediocre, but it'll hunt.

For my emergers, I'm going with an RS2. Versatile and quick to tie, it's an easy decision. It'll also give me an opportunity to work on my dubbing game.


Things are looking pretty good for the weekend. We've had some rain over the past week, temperatures are warming, and we're due for some foul weather on Saturday, which means there's a good chance for a BWO hatch.


In site news, I really need to get on designing a logo so I can do a bit more with social media. I'm also going to re-write the "About" page to provide a bit more detail about myself, my background, and what I'm looking to do this year.
