January 2010Dear Folks, First, please know that we greatly appreciate your business! Thank you!

Once again, we are particularly excited about how well our new prod-ucts were received by customers during the past year. Of particular note was our new line of H&H “Classic Action” Fly rods. We sold out our first shipment in just a few months ... but don’t worry, there’re more on the way and we’re keeping prices low. Also, it seemed that our new offerings in fly tying just “flew” off the shelves. Our “euro” threads, H&H chemically sharpened hooks and low priced genetic capes/saddles were in strong demand. Thanks.

Our “Hi-Floater” fly lines hit a new high in sales and be-came the most popular line we carry. We designed it to be the best all around line available! Many folks agree with us, but you just have to try one and see for yourself. It is supple, has very low memory and is easy to cast. Personally, we didn’t think it needed much improvement but . . . some customers were asking for a “Premium” fly line with a welded loop. Well, we couldn’t just put on a loop and call it “better,” so here’s what we did: we added a 3’ section of a ‘state of the art’ ultra-high float-ing material (white), a new internal lubrication system that actually “injects” itself into the line over time to provide the best slickness we’ve seen, made it “sulfur” yellow color and, of course, added the welded loop. We call it the “Rise.” Check it out on page 12. If you like the “Hi-Floater,” you’ll love the “Rise!”

The Hook & Hackle “Illusion” fluorocarbon tippet also hit a record in sales. Good thing is, no one asked for us to improve it ... we couldn’t anyway. So we didn’t. Just give it a try and you’ll be amazed at the strength, low visibility and value. Most of our tippet material spools have 50 yards, not 30. Only $9.

In fly tying, the Nature’s Spirit hair, fur, feathers and dubbings have just taken off. In case you didn’t know, we like to brag that they’re the best fly tying materials we can find -- and we will KEEP bragging about it. You’ll find many new hair and feather products scattered throughout the catalog, including CDC in 1 gram packs. We’ve also some new synthetic materials that’ll help you tie some great flies and catch more fish. Try some of our new Ultra Violet enhanced flash, new Midge flash & Crystal Mir-ror flash. Midge tinsels, holographic tinsels in more colors and “Synthetic Yak Hair” round out the list. As you know, genetic hackle, particularly for dry flies, has become increasingly difficult to find. We solved that problem by contracting with some of the finest growers in the country to provide our own private label of feathers. As a result, we have two more choices in fine hackle: Our “Choice” feathers are outstanding and will please the average fly tyer. The new “Premium” feathers, our top of the line product, is for the discriminating tyer who will settle for nothing less than the best!

One of the most important services we provide at H&H is the encouragement for folks to craft their own fly rods. You see, we know that you’ll fish better with a rod you build yourself. No magic potions, special formulas, no deeply guarded secrets -- none of these kinds of things -- are ingredients in our fly rod blanks or fly rod building kits. All you’ll get are the parts to craft a fine fly rod that you‘ll come to enjoy more and more as the years pass. And when folks come up to you on the water and ask what you’re fishing with, you’ll say something like “it’s just a little old rod I built myself a couple of years ago.” With that in mind, we introduce the “X-series!”

Three-fourths of the Earth’s surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. — Chuck Clark

Rod builders will be pleased about our new “made in the USA” series of “X” blanks and kits. These were created by Dave Gibson of the Great Bay Rod Company, exclusively for us, called the “XG.” We believe these will build some of the most “fishable” rods you’ve ever fished and the best part is, they’re nicely priced. We’re most excited about the new 10’4” 4-weight for Czech nymphing. You can read all about these and our new imported XE series as well, all on page 29.

Our new bamboo products are also quickly gaining in popularity. Our “made in the USA” blanks are truly made by one of the finest builders I know. They’re made “one at a time,” so please be patient if they’re not in stock. It may take 4-6 weeks for delivery, but they’re well worth the wait. We carry imported blanks and kits too, to fit just about any budget.

In our catalog, you’ll find fly fishing, fly tying & rod building advice from the archives of Fly Rod & Reel, celebrating their 30 year anniversary! Some if the most helpful & entertaining excerpts appear in double-outlined shaded boxes. The one adjacent, featuring Joe Humphreys, is one of my favorites.

Here’s the best part: Fly Rod & Reel, in celebration of their 30th and Hook & Hackle’s 35th anniversaries, is offering a special subscription price to our customers. See the box on the previous page for details.

But that’s not all! You’ll also find dozens of tips & quotes from our friends and customers too! In our emails, we’ve been ask-ing for your input and were just overwhelmed at the response. Customer’s names will appear with their quote, and a few added comments from me may appear in parentheses.

To make room for all this helpful and fun information, we added more pages to the catalog, but also omitted some familiar products. Please know that most are still available. Just because you don’t see it here, doesn’t mean we don’t carry it. And, if you ever have a question about anything in the catalog, or just want some advice, you can just call us. Yes, we have experienced, knowledgeable folks - Russ, Eric & Terry answer the phones during regular business hours, M-F, EST. I call them our “help desk.” If you leave a message, we’ll call you back the next business day. Promise! I couldn’t do this without them and they are as dedicated as I am to achieving excellence and success!

Once again, we know that 2009 was tough for many folks for many different reasons and we want you to know that the folks at Hook & Hackle greatly appreciate your business and support. As always, we are committed to providing our customers with the best rod building, fly tying and fly fishing products available. We greatly appreciate your business and sincerely send our finest wishes to all who support us . . . and the great sport of fly fishing!

Lastly, my personal thanks go to Dan Delekta from Beartooth Fly Fishing in Montana who, along with his wife Nancy, have truly inspired me to be the best I can be in this business of fly fishing! Dan always tellS me to “live the life!” Visit with them in Cameron, Montana if you have the opportunity.

Tight lines!

Sincerely,

Ron,Owner

Preparation and ApproachOne final “don’t”: Don’t feel that this fly-fishing game is too complex to learn. ... Like any other pastime, fly-fishing is what you make it. It’s what you want it to be. You--you’re in charge, not some magazine article or videotape or pushy relative. You can learn enough in a short time to catch a fish and enjoy yourself immensely, or you can spend a lifetime rising to the challenge of perfecting your game. No one has this market cornered--starting out, we’re all equal before the trout.Joe Humphreys, FR&R, March 1990

The Elements of StyleWhat I’ve learned is that the real beauty of fishing small flies is that the so-called “technical” aspects must all be stripped away to the bare essentials. Small-fly imitations are the es-sence of simplicity. The tactics are simple refinements of those that you learned within the first year of your fly-fishing life. I like to think that small-fly anglers make fly presentations rather than casts. The word “casts” has become synonymous with how far the fly goes. Small-fly fishermen are more inter-ested in how the fly goes!Ed Engle, FR&R, April 1995

Our H&H “Classic Action” rods were sold out in 2009! They were our #1 selling fly rod. Ex-cellent quality at a moderate price -- for people who fish!

Elements of PresentationAvoid a position that forces you to cast downstream to a rising trout. The reason is simple: When you’re off to one side and the trout re-fuses the first cast, you can lead the fly well away to the side of the fish before making your pickup for the next cast. But if your position is straight upstream and you cast straight down, the leader and line will follow right behind the fly after a refusal and spook the fish.Dave Hughes, FR&R, April 1995

CORTLAND MICRONITE FLY LINE BACKING

Backing

The Value of RevisitationIt’s surprising how often fishing improves when you return to the water that beat you up a little the first time you fished it. I’m not knocking the urge to gallop off elsewhere when fishing is not excellent where you’re at. But try returning to a place where you’ve had just average fishing now and then, especially if it’s beautiful. Because of what you know about it the second time around, fishing will almost automatically be better. ... And at each visitation, you’ll learn a little more, and perhaps catch a few more or large fish.Dave Hughes, FR&R, January 1996

When stream conditions are very low or the fish heavily pressured. Don’t hesitate to go small. With both tippet and fly selection. That means 6x fluorocarbon tippet and fly patterns down to size 16 1x long nymph hook. I like the Rainshad-ow rod blank 10 foot for a 6 weight line or the new H&H Rainshadow Switch rod blank, 10”8 for a 6 weight line. These are the ideal rods for Lake Erie tributary fishing. Good Luck! Greg Ludvik (Gee, Greg! We couldn’t have said it better our-selves! See the Switch Rod Blank on page 30 and our best selling fluorocarbon tippet on page 14.)

Choosing a fly line has become complicated over the years, in part because of the demands of the seasoned fly fisherman and in part because of refinements in technology and manufacturing. With that in mind, the purpose of this page will be to help you decide what you need to start if you’re a beginner, or what you can do to improve, if you have some experience.

There are two basic designs in fly lines which are called tapers - 90 feet or more in length. Behold:

Double Taper

Weight Forward TaperAlso, there are lines that float and lines that don’t float. The vast majority of folks who fly fish use only a floating line because they’re catching fish in the top 6’ or so of water. So chances are, you want a floating line. Double taper line is a favorite of many fly fishing enthusiasts who fish slower action rods, like older graphite rods, fiberglass & bamboo. Nice thing about the double taper is that when one side wears out, you can switch the line around and fish the ‘fresh’ end, i.e. - you’ll save money. Many fisher-men who use the faster and stiffer graphite rods favor the weight forward taper. Different manufactur-ers all have different designs to their weight forward tapers, but generally the idea is the same: to add extra weight towards the casting part of the fly line. This can be particularly helpful with casts of 50 feet or more, but since most fly fishermen cast within a shorter range of only 25-30 feet, the weight forward provides little benefit.

My thought on what you should buy if you are just starting out OR if you want to improve is simple: buy the double taper line and beat it up by practicing your casting in an empty lot. Spending more money on a line will not improve your casting nearly as much as practice. Period!!!!! Money spent with a good instructor or a good DVD (Joan Wulff’s is one of the best) would be a worthy investment.

And you should buy our Hook & Hackle fly lines because you’ll save money, right? Nope!! You should buy them because our particular tapers are designed by one of the most experienced design teams in the USA and is made of the finest materials and coatings available in the USA! In other words, we know you cannot find better all around floating lines than ours.

Fly Line Primer

Sub Surface Fly LinesHere is where you’ll find the lines with subtleties for fishing deeper than 5 to 6 feet. Generally, there are three types: intermediate, sinking and sink tip lines. Intermediate lines sink, but they do so slowly, generally 1-1 1/2 inches per second. Sinking lines have faster sink rates than intermediate lines, usually 2 1/2 or more inches per sec-ond. And sink tip lines have only the first 10 to 30 feet that sink. See the chart for guidelines. Even if you’re new to the sport, you can envision fishing situations for which these lines would benefit your fishing: catching striped bass off the east coast, fishing for largemouth bass in a Texas lake or maybe steelhead in Alaska!

One last word on lines. As you leaf through the following pages, you’ll see some outstanding lines that are specific to types of fishing like for stripers, trout, tropics, lakes, two-handed casting and so on. As you fish more and more, and in varied situations, you’ll naturally find these lines very useful. If you need to consider them, it will become apparent over time.

Leader SelectionTippet adjustment is vital to success both on the surface with a dry fly and on the bottom with a nymph. ... If you’re fishing a dry fly in windy conditions, you probably can’t control a long leader and an extended tippet. You might be able to turn the leader over but, even with ex-cellent loop control, it is unlikely you’ll get that combi-nation of accuracy and slack for that long drift. ... There is no standard leader for every occasion. I’ll adjust both the stiff and soft sections for water or other conditions. It may be a six-foot leader in tight brush, or a 10-footer in open water.Joe Humphreys, FR&R, July/August 1990

Some Tippet “Tips”There are all kinds of misrepresentations out there about tippet materials. First of all, adding tippet is as simple as tying a ‘surgeons’ knot to attach the two pieces together. A ‘blood knot,’ a bit harder to master, is also worth learning. You can also safely tie our fluorocarbon tippet to a nylon leader and it will hold just fine with either knot. Some folks say that fluorocarbon is too stiff or that it sinks. Horse hockey!! Fluorocar-bon is actually more difficult for the fish to see, so that 5X fluoro is as transparent as 6X mono. You’ll lose less fish & flies with our fluoro!

These leaders are terrific if you want to start fish-ing more seriously in a “sub surface” environment. They’ll give you more control of your fly’s presen-tation to the fish. Using these new polytapers is like having a “miniature” fly line at the end of your fly line! Great for quickly changing conditions with the loop to loop connections.

CORTLAND UNDERWATER FLY LINES

Fruitful HesitationsA few moment’s pause between seeing the trout and presenting a fly to it will greatly increase the chance that the fish will respond to your first cast--which means you won’t put it down. It also increases the odds that other trout will accept your fly in subsequent casts. ... Whenever you get into a selective situation and trout refuse what you’re using, always inspect your tippet before making another change. You’ll be surprised how often it has contracted to about a foot. Extend it two or three feet and you’re often back in business even without changing flies.Dave Hughes, FR&R, May 1999

Selecting the Right FlyFly size can be critical. ... Trout become conditioned to what they see most of, and the same bug in a larger size can be a turn-off, particularly if the fish are being pounded by a multitude of anglers using larger flies. Trout in clear water don’t cot-ton to unnatural drifts and oversized flies. They stop feeding with the first cast and by the second one they’re long gone. The moral here is: Be observant. Take the time to find out what is there. Be aware of size and color. And be flexible.Joe Humphreys, FR&R, April 1990.

Strike Indicators

Strike IndicatorsI’ve let a dry fly be my strike indica-tor, holding the nymph at the desired depth, and I’ve been surprised how of-ten the trout took the dry. It isn’t easy getting a drag-free drift or to make the leader do what is needed this way, but it is a natural and effective tech-nique. The nymph can be attached to a section of tippet tied to the eye of the dry fly or to the bend of the hook, but I like a short (4 inches) dropper for the dry fly; it gives the trout a bet-ter chance to inhale the fly.Joe Humphreys, FR&R, May 1992

The Ways a Hatch Can HappenThat’s true most days, in most places: there is almost always more than one way to goose some trout into the air.Dave Hughes, FR&R, July 1994

The Roll CastThe roll cast is the “security blanket” I give all students as a first technique. The message is that if all else fails, you can always rollcast! It is a lot simpler than all the words neces-sary to describe it, and there is plenty of versatility in the technique. Roll casts can be made forehand or backhand, at low or high angles, on or above water. And yes, you can shoot line under some conditions.Joan Salvato Wulff, FR&R, May/June 1993.

Old Good StuffOld good stuff, is simply equipment that extends itself from you. ... You don’t have to ask it any questions. You have to be curious, and try new gear. Trying out new stuff is the only way to discover what deserves to become old stuff. Old good stuff, is simply equip-ment that extends itself from you. You don’t have to ask it any questions.Dave Hughes, FR&R, July, 1996

Kids and CastingTemperatures are up, days are lengthening, our creeks and rivers are healthily full of water. It’s late spring, and as we turn attention to our favorite sport, it be-hooves us (there’s an old word) to set aside time to introduce a youngster to the family’s fly-fishing heritage. When are children old enough to learn to fly-cast? ... I gave Alex (her grandson) his first fly-casting lesson when he was five ...Joan Salvato Wulff, FR&R, July/August 1999

NOTES: On longer fly rods (8 1/2’ and longer) 2 stripping guides are usually used, whereas only one stripping guide is usually used on shorter rods. The balance of the guides are running guides (snake guides or Pacific Bay single foot guides of the builder’s choice). Guides are usually tapered from the size opening of the stripping guide down to the size opening of the tip top. The choice of guide sizes is pretty much up to the desires of the rod builder. Many rod builders begin with a 10mm stripping guide on shorter rods and taper the run-ning guides down to a 7mm tip top ending. Longer rods are tapered from 12mm stripping guides.

NOTICE ON ROD BLANK WARRANTIES--ONLY the blank is warranted against manufacturer’s defects. It is the customer’s responsibility to recover components prior to sending back the blank for warranty service. Call for instructions before returning defective blanks! Regard-less of where the blank is sent for service, be sure to insure it.

Rod Blank Brands are warranted by the manufacturer. Please contact them for warranty service.

The use of a fly rod blank for any other purpose voids the warranty.

FLY ROD BUILDINGSo now you know you CAN build your own custom fly rod! What’s the next step?

Once you’ve determined the type of fishing and blank you think you’ll need, then all you have to do is peruse the following pages for a kit that has most all you’ll need to start on your first custom rod building project. Want to make some changes, say single foot guides instead of double foot or walnut wood insert in the reel seat? No worries! Just give Russ, Eric, Terry or me a call and we’ll be glad to walk you through making any changes or upgrades. And that is what custom rod building is all about. It’s a design of both function and form that suits you . . . and only you!

If you want to try your hand at making your “own” kit from scratch, just start with this easy checklist:

Deterimine the type of fly rod you’ll be needing. For instance, fishing for fresh water trout: start with a 9’ 5 weight. Fishing the flat in Beleize, consider a 9’6” 8 weight. Big Texas bass more your style, a sturdy 9’ 7 weight ought to fill the bill. Or if steelhead fishing, you may want to think about one of the new switch rods which let you fish one or two handed, or even spey, specially if some salmon are in your sights. Oh, and don’t forget those little mountain streams with the native trout, a 6’6” 2 weight or a 7’9” 3 weight may be perfect!

Who Fly-FishesI think patience is certainly something it (fly-fishing) has taught me. I can stand in the middle of a stream practicing my presentation all day. Like I said, the most relaxing thing in the world is to stand in a stream and fly-fish. When you go places where there are no noises and it is so silent that it’s loud it teaches you how to relax. I learned the sound of silence when I fish.Norman Schwarzkopf interviewed by Stephen Camelio, FR&R, March 2004.

The Magic of the AdamsSome fly fishers and tiers believe there are magical qualities in the combination of materials used to tie the Adams. Others believe the magic is in the silhouette the fly presents on the water, and still others are convinced that presentation is the key factor. I'm of the opinion that it might be a cimbination of all three, with a little extra weight thrown toward the presentation theory. In a contest of skill versus equipment, skill is always sup-posed to win. But then again, there is that magical thing to consider.A.K.Best, FR&R, March 2005

Guides - Tip TopsConfused about guides? We were too. First, decide whether you want single foot or double foot! Double foot are a bit easier to attach and wind, but there are more wraps that you must do.

Single foot will have less of a stiffening effect on the finished rod since there are fewer wraps, but they can be trickier to attach. We recommend double foot for your first rod.

Last, pick your color and or quality. Stain-less steel is the clear industry standard and folks have been using these for years. Chrome plated give an extra level of durabil-ity. Black and gold are aesthetic choices and titanium coated guides add a further layer of hardness combined with good looks!

Confused about Tip Tops? Match the color/type and order the one that fits the rod tip top size. If it’s part of a kit, you can be sure that we’ll check the right fit before we send it to you. Many builders use a “large Loop” tip top for rods that are 7-weight and higher. This allows for larger diameter line and knots. If you’re not sure what to use, you’ll never be wrong with the large loop!

Please Note:If you are ordering more than one blank, indicate which tip top is for which so we may properly match the tip top to the right blank. Standard Large Loop

When mounting guides to a rod blank use rubber leg material to hold them in place before you wrap them. Simply cut a section and wrap it several times around the blank an inch or so from the guide foot position. Now roll it over itself and onto the guide foot. Cut off the tag ends. Do this on both feet. This holds the guide secure enough to start wrapping while still allowing for adjustment. Tom Barton (You can also call your dentist to get you some rubber bands they use for kid’s braces. It’s the best reason I can think of to go to the dentist!)

Silk threads have different characteristics than nylon. The 3/0 silks listed below are 1/2 the diameter of our “A” nylo which means you’ll need twice as much per wrap as nylon. Many silk colors develop a translucent quality when finish is applied. We suggest our customers “experiment” with silk threads before applying to rods. Color preserver can be used on silk to create opaque results.

NEW!

NEW!

Instead of using an X-Acto knife or razor blade to trim threads, I use fingernail clippers. Clippers cut the thread very short without damaging the wrap, and are far quicker and easier than trying to be pre-cise with a blade. Another tip is to Use GUM Dental Floss Threaders in place of a loop made from thread or monofilament line. Al Barrett (Roger Seiders, inventor of Flex Coat adhesives and finishes also likes the use of clippers.)

When using a light build epoxy that requires two coats, only apply enough epoxy on the first coat to lightly coat the threads, and be sure to brush off any excess. This will allow you to cut away any stray fibers that may be sticking up as well as help reduce the bulk of your finished product. Matt Yonkey (We also like using a light build first, even when the final coat will be high build. This tends to give a more uniform overall fin-ish to the end product.)

I like to use a lighted alcohol lamp to burnish thread wraps if necessary, and also to reduce bubbles from the finish when still wet. Terry Mulvi-hill (Some folks use a disposable butane lighter instead, thinking that the alcohol lamp is a bit dangerous. Honestly, I’m not sure about these techniques, because the local fire department has barred me from play-ing with fire!)

Page 51Info for New Fly Tyers(preferences for tools)

I’ve talked to thousands of customers, scores of professionals and many manufacturers. On my fly tying desk is just about every kind of hair, fur, dubbing, synthetic, wire, foam, legging, hook and, of course tools. I like to try everything I get, and believe me, I have samples of just about everything. Since there are about 125 tools and vises on the next few pages, and it seems over-whelming even to me, I wanted to let our customers know what I “go to” most often - i.e. what ‘stuff’ I use the most and tend to favor. And by the way, I tie just about a thousand flies a year. Starting with the vise, I like a rotary. Whether it’s “in line” or not, doesn’t matter much for my tying, but I just like to turn the fly occasionally for winding on material and also for inspection of all sides. On my desk sits Peak rotary pedestal vise and it holds all the size hooks I use for freshwater fishing. It never disappointments me. When I travel or do demonstrations, I use Re-gal’s rotary with a C-clamp. Their “lever action” jaws make it one of the simplest and most pleasant vises to use. I know that the Dyna-Kings are used by many professionals and are also exceptional too, but when I go to fly tying symposiums across the country, I see plenty of “old timers” tying on original Thompsons. Our Pro Vise is most similar and is an excellent choice for a new tyer. In fact, it’s what I used for 20 years before I bought Hook & Hackle. The Apex and the E-Z rotary vises are very popular with our customers for a lower priced rotary and they work extremely well. As for the other tools, I stick with the basics in most cases. For basic bobbins, I like ones with the brass thumb rest, like our 3800103 and it’s only a few bucks. I’d rather have 3 or 4 of these already spooled up, than have just one bobbin that cost a lot more. If you have trouble with the finer threads breaking, like 8/0 and smaller, I find it is usually because I use too much tension, not because of a groove in the bobbin. If that concerns you, try our ceramic tube bobbin. They’re all on the bottom of page 54. Scissors? I’d recommend two pair to start: our arrow scissors with fine points for “close in” trimming and the slightly larger Supreme scissors for making larger cuts, like for synthetic materials and hair. Our “Supreme” is an excellent scissor which will easily take care of most of your needs. They’re stainless steel with gold handles like the kinds that sell for $20. Ours cost $7.50 and I think the quality is identical. You can augment your scissor collection with “Spring”scissors or the “Arrow” scissors for finer cuts. If you must have the best, the Anvil “Ice Tempered” are probably as sharp as you can get. Consider the Anvil 50, 60 or 70’s, shown on page 53. Bodkins and threaders are “no brainers.” They’re inexpensive and I recommend you get a couple of each because they seem to easily disappear. You can also buy threaders at the local craft store and make a bodkin out of a pin run through a piece of cork. These are less expensive and can be fun to make, too. I always grab just whatever is in front of me. You’ll more than likely want to learn to whip finish your flies, and the 3800301 on page 54 is all you need. We have the new Hook & Hackle Whip Finisher, 3800HWP, which feels more substantial in the hand and I’m beginning to like it a lot -- my experience with it is limited, but so far I like it a lot! You can also use the ‘half hitch’ tool that is part of our bodkins to finish off a fly. On hair stackers almost any will do the job, but the more you use one, the more finicky you’re likely to become. I think that our new aluminum series is about as good as you can get anywhere. They’re what I use most often. You’ll find them at the top of page 55. Hackle pliers can be a pain and everyone has their favorites. I find myself reaching for the English style or Non-Skid ones the most. Many, many pro tyers I see are always reaching for the E-ZEE hackle pliers and they’re about as inexpensive as you can get. After some trial and error, you’ll begin to favor certain ones depending upon the feathers you’re using. Do not waste your time trying to pick out the “best” pair from the start. They’re all on the bottom of page 54. The two tool kits below will last you for years and are excellent places to start. Naturally, over time, you’ll find yourself adding to these tools here and there -- that’s the best way to do it. Our kit that comes with the reel pouch is exceptional for just $30. It’s item number TOOLBR1. The “Cushion Grip” tools in the leather pouch are also becoming very, very popular. If you go the latter route, you’ll have to purchase hackle pliers and a hair stacker separately. Either way, you won’t be disappointed.

The best tip I have is get your kids tying. I bought a couple of grab bags of material and gathered several feathers from the hen house. Then set up 3 vises and said have at it. It was great. The kids got the books out and tried their hand at several patterns. They did a great job. Turned off the screens and developed a life long love for a great hobby. The fly tying bench is always a mess but that means they are tying and not in front of a screen. Cory Zurcher (AMEN!)

When tying lead wire weighted flies, instead of cutting the lead wire with scissors, pull on the lead wire and “wiggle” back and forth until the lead wire breaks. The break is much smoother than a scissor cut and it also prevents dulling the scissors. Larry Bundy (But Larry, how am I going to sell all these new scissors?)

Beauty and the BeastAvoid the classic error of purchasing inferior tools just to “try out tying.” Buy few, but buy quality tools: vise, scissors, bobbin, hackle pliers, whip-finisher and, if required, hair stacker. To aid tool selection, rely upon the judgement of experienced tiers. If possible, invest in a good tying class and try the various tools before purchase. Moreover, I would avoid pur-chasing tying kits, some of which contain inferior tools and materials. Darrel Martin, FR&R, July/August 1995

New Locking Spools

Zen and the Art of TyingTying is a creative process where even scraps of ideas may have value. Some-times I think tying is akin to Zen archery, where hitting the target is ir-relevant. The essencee is the process. “I tie therefore I am.” And then at other times, I think that tying is nothing more than wrapping scraps around bent steel. I don’t think I will ever be able to tell the difference.Darrel Martin, FR&R, May, 1993

Hook Conversion Chart?I’ve tried to put a conversion chart together, but there are so many nuances that vary from one company to another, that it would take about four pages to get it right. Instead, and in particular for new fly tiers, consider the fol-lowing guidelines for our hooks to help you get going. These are general* guidelines!!!

Sexi-FlossSexi-Floss is a crinkly spandex custom-dyed in all the popular tying colors. It is great for shiny, durable wrapped bodies, legs, and antennae. It’s a great substitute for Round Rubber. One size* is good all around leg-ging material. I like it for nymph bodies too. All colors just $2.75

On Proper ProportionsThe spinners dance--the bright, fluttering wings and the long trem-bling tails fall and rise in the slanting sun. There is beauty in their delicate proportion. And nothing makes an imitation more attractive than proper proportions. Most modern propor-tions are, in fact, based upon a capri-cious tradition. Proportion has less effect upon fly function and fish than it does upon our tying aesthetics--the fragile beauty we capture tying....Tying proportions will always be debated and tiers will always test and modify tradition.Darrel Martin, FR&R, Nov/Dec 1998

When learning fly tying or fly fish-ing, START SIMPLE. Don’t go out and buy hundreds of dollars in materials and gear. Odds are that you will end up wanting to buy new stuff anyway once you learn what casting style you have and what fly patterns you use the most. Devin Clark (We agree whole-heartedly.

Chenille is a staple in nearly every fly tiers kit. A quick glance down this page might make a beginner’s head start to spin, so here are some simple guidelines:

1. Wooly buggers typically use “Standard” Chenille. Start with medium.2. Brighter colors in the standard material? Use the “Fluorescent” Chenille3. Want to see a bit of flash in your chenille? Try the “Glo-Brite” Chenille.4. Tying for saltwater? Estaz & Crystal Chenille have lots & lots of flash.5. San Juan Worms will be best tied with our “Micro” Chenille - both sizes.

The 7 day pill reminders - daily, twice daily and especially four times daily (28 compartments) make excellent organiz-ing containers for small fly tying materi-als such as small hooks, cone heads, beads and hour-glass eyes. They have rounded bottoms and individual compart-ment lids. Mike Gilzow (I tried this last week. Almost had a heart attach when I swallowed two prince nymphs instead of my Prozac. I wasn’t just in a bad mood,

I was in a really really really bad mood!)

A Better BuggerOne of my favorite fall streamers is still the tried-and-true, black-and-olive Wooly Bugger. It’s a handy fly to have with you when the slightest breeze can loose hundreds of brightly colored autumn leaves on the stream. . . . When you have to go subsurface, the Wooly Bugger is a good bet.A.K. Best, FR&R Nov 2008

I have been tying for over 30 years. And the best advice I can of-fer is only use top quality material (buck tail, thread, vise, bobbins, etc.) and have a good overhead lighting system. Oh yes, and when you start getting fatigued, take a break, so you don’t burn out. Com-pare your work now and then, you will see what you need to improve or change. Benny Benson (Benny forgot to tell you where to get the stuff . . . but call us and we’ll give you some hints. And if you’re looking for the best synthetic “Yak Hair”.......)

A Trout ‘Ant’hology - and Beetles tooOf course, there is no one true Superfly--if there were, would we fish with anything else? Besides, fly-fishing would lose much of its delicious fascination if we weren’t frequently challenged to pick the right pattern out of so many possi-bilities. Yet there are some remark-able flies that have proven their versatility and effectiveness ... on those occasions when nothing else seems to work. Over the years, my favorite old reliable--and sometimes my last best hope--has often been a terrestrial, specifically some type of ant or beetle. ... ants and beetles are found virtually everywhere.Jim Dean, FR&R, July 2001www.flyrodreel.com

The Mickey FinnThe first streamer fly I tied over 40 years ago was the Mickey Finn. I chose it because it was a pretty fly and was an old and well-established pattern. The neat thing about many classic flies is that they work quite well on today’s supposedly “educated” trout.A.K. Best, FR&R, June 2007

I tie in all my soft hackles by the tips. Easy to grab the tip of a partridge feather if you have pointy twee-zers. This is one of the best tools that I own. You can use the smaller, cheaper ones from the drug store. Grab the tip of the feather stem with the pointy tweezers, wet fingers and stroke barbules backward, cut off all but a stub that is left for the tie in. Moisten fingers and stroke barbules toward the rear at about a 30 degree angle as you wrap the feather over the top, repeat until you have enough hackle, then tie off. Dick Walle (Cheap tweezers from the drugstore, c’mon Dick! Now I’m going to have to lower the price . . . and I’ve got two kids in college!!! I just want customers to know that Dick ties the nicest soft hackle flies I’ve seen and best of all, they catch fish!)

Peacock is probably one of the most popular and ver-satile feathers around for fly tying. It has natural flash and makes a great nymph body. Twist a few strands of the herl and it makes a perfect Prince body. Our NEW bleached & dyed peacock sticks will knock your socks off!! And the 10-14” herl is beauti-ful and fun to use!

The Tail of a Dry FlyLike a vanishing Cheshire cat, we begin at the tail. There is more to tailing a dry fly than merely mounting fibers. Selecting and mounting a tail, though fundamentally simple, requires some knowledge. . . . In most cases, the tails of a freshly hatched dun are short but rapidly lengthen with age. Spinner tails are often conspicuously long. ... range from 1 1/4 to approximately 1 1/2 times body length.Darrel Martin, FR&R, July/Oct., 1996

Getting Your Hackles UpDo you mount a hackle by the tip or the base? Do you mount the dull side forward or dull side to the rear? The dull side is the concave side, the side against the bird’s body. Hackling with the dull side toward the head pushes or cups the barbs forward for a better stance upon the water. ... Like many tiers I wrap “dull forward” for dries and “dull aft” for wet. ... A rooster parades his hackle for display: the glassy, spiky barbs an-nounce his virility. This specialized, stiff-barbed feather is one of the small splendors of tying. Darrel Martin, FR&R, January/February 1996

Wet Flies: Year-Round ProducersWet flies are effective for many reasons. They imitate a wide variety of insects--mayflies, caddis, stoneflies, terrestrials--as well as small minnows. Native or hold-over trout condition to hatches and the food supply in the stream, and thus consider wet flies to be natural food. Wet fly fishing is an excellent way to start a beginner or a fly-fisher who wants to learn all aspects of the sport. In my point of view, the best initial approach is across and downstream. With this method you have better line and casting control, and by working a short cast and gradually lengthen-ing the cast to cover a wider arc, you cover more water.Joe Humphreys, FR&R, May/June 1990

INFO FOR “NEWBIES”

We firmly believe that this is the most important page in our catalog!! Unless we make it “easy” and inexpensive for anyone to enjoy fly fishing, fewer and fewer new folks will make this re-warding pasttime part of their lives!! Consider some of the following things when starting out:

Rod SelectionFor learning how to fly cast, we strongly believe that a medium-fast rod (or moderate-fast rod which is just a “tad” slower) is your best! It will be more forgiving as you learn to cast and you will definitely get a better “feel” for the line loading on the rod. Don’t be tempted by the latest types of graphite & boron and very fast blanks. The latter will make it more difficult to learn proper casting and also substantially lessen the weight of your wallet!

Lines, Backing, Tippet, Etc.There need not be a lot of mystery in this area. Start-ing at the reel, you’ll need backing on the reel in case the fish “runs” a good bit. Next, the fly line is what you use to cast the fly as it has a certain weight and taper. For the vast majority of fly fishing, a weight forward floating line will work perfectly. Leader is usually tapered nylon attached to the fly line. It will gradually taper from 7.5 to 9 feet, to the thinnest portion which is attached to the fly. This “weight-less” section allows you to present the fly to the fish as stealthily as possible. Tippet is additional nylon you can add to the leader as necessary for length or as the leader shortens due to usage -- lost flies, breakage, re-tying, etc.

Knots You’ll only need to know a few knots to get this all together. Concentrate on learning 3 of them: Im-proved Clinch for attaching flies, Surgeon’s Loop for attaching tippet to leader & Nail Knot for attaching leader to fly line!! There are many alternatives to these knots, but these are enough to get you out fishin’ and catchin.’ See animated “Grog’s Knots” on our website for detailed instructions on tying these knots.

Removing the mysteryPlease know that most folks are able to consistently catch fish on just a handful of different flies in a few different sizes. You needn’t make yourself crazy trying to figure out what’s best. Many flies will catch fish!

Spending moneyYou do NOT, and probaby “should” not “break the bank” in order to get started fly fishing. We get aggravated when magazines are always trying to get you to buy more and more expensive stuff that won’t make you fish any better, but just part you from your money. Remember, our goal here is to get you out fishin’ --- not shopping! For instance, pay attention to our guidelines on reel selection on page 10 to “get it right” and save money too!

Call us!!Remember, you can always call Russ, Eric or me (Ron) if you have questions or need help!! There aren’t a whole lot of places you can do that anymore! Between us, we’ve over 40 years experience of fly fishing and over 20 years of rod building! We’re here during “regular” business hours, Eastern Standard time. After hours, our answering service will take a message and we’ll call you back within 24 hours, or Monday if you call over the weekend. Tight Lines!!

Rule#1Nothing, and I mean ABSOLUTELY NOTH-ING” CAN REPLACE TImE SPENT ON THE WATER! Spending more money, too

much theory, chat rooms & magazines are not a replacement for experience! So get out on

the water and FISH!
