Ian B Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Chance's are I might not be able to get a few of those materials(Rabbit strips, maybe a few others), and I doubt we will be able to get into edmonton early enough on wednesday to pop into a store to get the stuff, So I am wondering if I may borrow someones extra's if possible?(And I will pay them for what I use of there materials) And If not that's cool too, it just mean Wabbit Season has started... Thanks -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolly Posted April 17, 2005 Author Share Posted April 17, 2005 Yes Paul those are the materials, Some mylar tubing and holo tinsel works too. 3/0 hooks are just fine 25 to 30 pound mono for happy salad guards helps. Woolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisS Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Ian I might have the odd extra price of zonker and crosss cut bunny Ian I sell the stuff but don't worry Wed night I can give you a bit to tie with.

Ian B Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Thanks Dennis! This might be the last meeting I get to for a while(Calving is just starting), so I really want to learn how to make pike flies, for the rod I am about to finish building. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave robinson Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 This week's meeting is Pike Flies. Bring your gaudiest material, hooks #2 and up and some 30lb mono if you want happy salad guards. I'd love to help Dave out by demoing a tube fly for pike, (maybe another time) but I have another engagement Something about 40 year old Scotch. PS to Dave Can you gather and e-mail me the info for next month? I need to start the May newsletter this weekend. DR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
