Very nice!

Thanks Chris! Next time I'm out that way (just about never) I'll drop some by the shop for ya.
Who on the HotSpots crew has the Blazer Bay 2400?
I'd like to get a ride on it. I've pretty much decided on a 2400 for my next ride, I just want to take a ride on one.

Is that the h20 fibers? Looks good. Like a mix of ep and angel hair that actually shapes well.

Farrar Blend,(Sold as SF Blend, after the creator Steve Farrar) you can find it at most shops (to bad we have none local) Tons of colors available. I love the stuff, it doesn't tangle between casts and fish, water shakes off in the first back cast, etc... Easy to tie with also. It's thinner and lighter than the H20 stuff.

Hey timeflies, sorry, I totaly brain farted. Yes "Just Add H2O" does make it

I was thinking of another blend earlier, sorry about that.

Beautiful flies ! What size hook did you use and is Hot Spots going to sell them ?

CaptHarry · 11-03-2011, 09:00 PM

lsucole, 2/0 Owner Aki. Not selling, just letting Chris know I would drop some by for him next tim I'm out that way.(Sorry if I mis-led) I barely have enough time to tie my own up, much less commercial tie. .....but if you would like to tie some up, I'd be more than hapy to show ya. ....but since all of our lives are busy, here are some resources for them.
You can buy them at bearsden.com, look for johny king's kinky muddler.(bearsden is where I originally spotted it)
An article on the pattern,

...and a step by step how too,

We need to put a tie fest together, to get together and share patterns!
....and some beers of course

Harry, thanks for the info !

Great looking flies! Is that material easier to tie with than EP fibers? What color of green is that on the far right fly?
