Achewter Registered: 02/02/04 Posts: 2237 Loc: N of Seattle	Want to tie up some big bucktails for the bug rods. Heading up to Neah Thursday and want to set new personel best for Fly rod. Yea I now it's cheating but I don't care and I am going to keep it and bleed if it doesn't have to many fins. This is something I have always wanted to do and didn't think I would get to this year until they decided to reopen it. Pics would be great. If it's anything like July I could probably glue some shoestring to a hook and do Ok... _________________________ When Ma Nature decides to make ya her bitch, aint nothin your gonna do about it

On some of the colors like blue, brown, and green add 4-6 peacock herls on top. _________________________ They say that the man that gets a Ph.D. is the smart one.

Fishingjunky15 Spawner Registered: 03/22/03 Posts: 860 Loc: Puyallup, WA	BTW: I believe Neah Bay has been closed to fishing since the 3rd. Sekiu, however, is still open. _________________________ They say that the man that gets a Ph.D. is the smart one. But I think that the man that learns how to get paid to fish is the smarter one.

D3Smartie Registered: 02/11/03 Posts: 1381 Loc: Bainbridge Island WA	Pink outfished everything else we had this summer. We had a bunch of pink clousers but busted them off or they got destroyed. Ended up fishing pink bunny leaches from my river box of flies. Pink outfished everything else at about 4 to 1. Usually chartuse is best for me but.... _________________________ Remember Children, there are no stupid questions, just stupid people...

Stringer Parr Registered: 06/11/03 Posts: 50	Blue, green ,and white were the best colors for me. These were tied on hollow Q-tips cut in half and stacked on 6-7 pearl beads and a big eye painted on the head trolled behind a flasther though. Outstanding results but that might have been just due to a lot of fish.
