Doesn't matter what your tying Trap. That you're tying is what's important. I hope things get back to normal for you soon.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

The next generation of my furled leaders.


I figured out how to furl in a high vis tip section, Note the new 3mm tippet ring. I've found them very easy to deal with.

This one is a medium weight 60" for 4,5,6 wt lines. It tapers from 22>18>14>12>10 strands of 6/0 Uni and changes at the tip for better visibility. These turn over the heaviest of flies and drift the lightest of dries equally well. I've tested them with tippets to 8' with great results.

This has been an ongoing experiment and continues to evolve. Fun stuff ;D

84 inch lengths are next ;)

I was thinking about making a camo patterned furl maybe using dark olive and tan. Leaders gone wild :w00t:
