The Flybrary

Ingenious I tell you! This website really just made my day. I have recently taken on the task of learning the entomology of Maryland streams better, this is perfect for gaining an overall knowledge!

Via TFM:

Photographer T.C. Geist has launched a new website called "The Flybrary" which he is using to display studio images of flies, both tied and naturals in a series of albums from nymphs to bass flies.  The website already has some very excellent images on display with many more to be added to over time.  

Check out The Flybrary website and also follow on Facebook and Twitter as well for the latest updates and additions to the various albums.

Pretty cool post form Mike over at Angler's Choice Flies...

So a few weeks ago I saw a link to a video step by step of the Double Deciever done by Brian Wise, of Fly Fishing the Ozarks, and was pretty impressed with what he had put together.  I have seen other stuff he has done before, but that was the first of mine that he had put together 'on film'.  He does not tie it exactly as I do but is pretty close and the end result looks great.  While I was in Florida I heard from him that the Meal Ticket was next up....and here it is!  Rather than the original Gama SP11-3L3H (or Mustad 34007) he utilizes the Gama B10s, but other than that in the video he is right on recipe and does a great job of it.

For those that wonder what it looks underwater here is some video of it I shot a while back.
