    Mine has the maginfier in it, if it wasnt for that, you guys would never see my flies, the macro isnt that good!

    Oh btw...

    I got a new green drake nymph and a caddis emerger... to be shown after indianapolis, im sure someone has done these and insperation for the caddis came from fly tier.


    One other thing, I got a new book you all should own.

    Fish Flies - The Encyclopedia of the Fly Tiers Art - Terry Hellekson.

    It has almost every pattern known to man in it. If someone is looking for something, speak up, i bet its in here!

    Terry Hellekson is a great, down to earth kinda writer. I have some stuff by him and will be on the lookout for that book too!



    On the topic of daylight lamps, I've been considering one for years and while I'd like one with a magnifier, I just remembered that Big Lots has 3 different types of day light lamp priced at $20! I'm gonna have to stop there today...

    Bought the lamp and it was actually $30. It's a floor lamp but puts out a ton of light! The neck isn't completely bendable, and at 60" I'll probably actually end up using it as a reading lamp instead! :D It'll be great though for when I tie away from my tying tables. I sit too high at my tables for this lamp to do what I want. Though if you tie at a regular chest to table height, I recommend it.
