Are you sure that's a mustad 3365a? The reason I ask is I like tying on long shank hooks. I went on ebay and the 3365a hooks look a lot different that came up.

Thanks

nfrechet: I have been enjoying the flies you post for years. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to tell you this, but man they are pretty! The precision of material placement is impeccable. And, your photos are excellent.

If I ever decide, in a moment of weakness, to post photos of my ties, I will be sure to zoom out and blur them just a bit.

The Mop Gurgler — Panfish On The Fly

Flies using dust mop material have been around for years now. Mop flies are embraced by some and scorned by others. The argument about them still rages, but the one thing that cannot be disputed is that the flies tied using mop material catch fish, a lot of fish!

I didn't tie it but bookmarked this one. You warm water guys should like this.
