Florin April 18Th Presentation

[flyfish]

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

I 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,,

I never thought of using the chain cool trick thanks m8

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

_{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.}

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.
