flyfish Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I just would like to thank Florin for a great presentation this week. This was a very, very good attempt at such short notice, as well as and very informative. Reminds me of some of the Club Tying Events years past. I think there will be two new patterns added to my test flybox this year. I am now informed on UV. Does anyone use the Nymphing rig in question, I am on the hunt for the tippet rings, or at least see one. I thought i could buy a few swivels and butcher them, but they are not the same. I may have to source them out of the states with a few furled leaders. Boy has the technique changed over the years..... when you think your seen everything? Thanks for a great presentation, job well done roy.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ArticWolf Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Does anyone use the Nymphing rig in question, I am on the hunt for the tippet ringsI take it that there is a Michael's in Edmonton, if so they have a bead section..they sell a very fine copper link chain..this I what I use..the breaking point would be around 20 +lbs...so no worries even though the link looks so tiny and thin,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsabac Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I got mine here: http://www.jsflyfishing.com/cgi-bin/item/LL-295020-0000/search/Niche-Products-Mini-Tippet-Rings.html . They are expensive and they work as advertised. That is a good shop, I ordered from them several times. Put the rings on a safety pin the moment you get the package. This makes it easier to thread the leader through and you do not lose them. I have not lost any yet, other than those that fell out of the original packaging after I opened it and carried it around my tackle bag for a while. Tight threads/lines, Florin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfish Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Thanks all, Will see first if i can source them locally, great way to use a dropper, save your leader, or use varing seizes of tippets for ever changing stream conditions.

flyfish Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 I talked to the fishing hole today and they will order the tippet rings from Wapsi Fly, don't know when they will come in, If they take too long will place a personal order. http://www.wapsifly.com/acctpr.html Roy...
