    Help

    Wednesday, December 26, 2007, 10:18 AM MST [General]

    To Experienced Users - Is there a way to post a blog entry so it appears after recent posts? I maintain a log of my fishing outings, and I like this site and would like to copy my log entries to my blog here, but they took place in the past, and I don't want them to appear as current postings if I can avoid. The Help FAQ's don't answer this question. In fact, the Help information is rather minimal as best as I can tell.

    Christmas

    Tuesday, December 25, 2007, 09:10 PM MST [General]

    With 6 inches of fresh snow here in Denver on Christmas Day, my thoughts have turned to tying flies for the 2008 season. So far I've completed 30 beadhead hares ears (my go to nymph throughout the season), 12 copper johns, 15 emerald caddis pupa, 10 yellow caddis pupa, 20 bright green caddis pupa, and 15 glassbead BWO nymphs. Today I made five beadhead WD40's on size 20 scud hooks. I'll make 5 more of these, 10 beadhead RS2's size 20, and 10 olive/brown bead midge larva imitations. This should put me in good shape with nymphs since I already have adequate inventory of beadhead pheasant tails, prince nymphs, and scuds.

    Upon completion of nymphs, I will turn to dry fly tying.
