When it comes to foam hoppers...
|
Even though I love foam as a tying material, I had never put
myself into the hopper part of it. The foam flies I mostly
use are beetles, ants and "regular" patterns with foam
purely as boyancy assistance.
One day though, I decided to try one out, just for fun. The Charlie Boy
Hopper (originator: Charlie Craven) that I chose, became the
start of a true foam hopper obsession. After that one I was
caught in it. Soon I sat in front of the computer looking
for more patterns to tie... and after a few of those
patterns I was soon out in uncharted territory.
Yep... it
sure was a beautiful day. :o) |
