Kudos on getting your grandchildren interested in your hobby, hope I can do that too one day :-)
Get well soon and remember the shortest distance between two points is a straight line in the opposite direction!
Get well soon David - those fish are just waiting to bite and for you to haul them in. regards from Down Under

David: I did not know of your recent health issue. So a belated GET WELL SOON. I hope we can get together in Maine as soon as you fell up to taking a ride. Sixteen year ago, while working for Maine DIF&W I started a program called Hooked on Fishing Not on Drugs. teaching kid how to fish. I am glad to hear that you are also involved with fishing and fly tying. Take care children
This sure is a beauty. Very nice fly Gary! But you know already that i like it!!!
Beauty indeed!! Thanks for the link to the tutorial. Great!
Gary, love this version. Every time I hear the name of this fly, I think of you. The pattern is great, but I think it must be your favorite streamer of all time. You did a splendid job on this fly, love it!
Hey Dwayne,
love the site man.
you tie a beautiful fly - I may not always comment on them (flyguy) but certainly appreciate your work and you posting them for us to enjoy!

All good, but for the serious dubbers, perhaps consider a container with a paper or cloth filter and pumping in compressed air...from a compressor not canned air. Just made one and its a serious dubbing machine...yarn into dubbing by the cubic foot in minutes. try missouriflies industrial dubbing blender for images and how too.
Actually, I've taken the tour at the Sage factory twice and watched the women wrap guides. They do all alignment of guides by eye, and it only takes about 30 seconds.
How do we purchase videos of Davie McPhail's fly patterns
Is the "Sipping Dry" out on purchasable video? My son and I used to fishing the Missouri a number of years ago. he lives in New York now and I'd love to be able to purchase a couple of the DVD's of this film. Please let me know. Thanks. Dennis Gambill
A friend of mine almost drowned when he fell into a river a couple of years ago. He had to undo his waders while under water. It was a very close call. He made it, but only to be diagnosed with cancer. He died within the next year. I sometimes wish he'd drowned that day. Be careful, yes, but don't think you can manage the future.
Hey David! Get well soon my friend.

Good to read your story. You're a tremendous inspiration.
"If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles." - Doug Larson
Get well soon!
Wishing you well and all the best :)

This is one type of fishing I have always wanted to try... Hope ya get well soon David, cheers M8
… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
