If you're patient and cool, who knows what you'll find here (though you can be fairly certain it will relate to fly fishing, far-fetched fish tales, and/or fly tying patterns all for my own personal amusement and future reflection).

Showshoe & UV Finish Emergers
The flies above are the result of some experimentation I've done with #16 Klinkhamer hooks and snowshoe hare's feet wings. Both bodies were finished using Loon's Clear UV Finish - Thin. On the left, I spiral-wrapped dun WonderWrap with UV Pearl Flashabou wrapped between the WonderWrap spirals. On the right, I used a grizzly hackle quill. The idea is that the bodies will easily sink below the surface, with the super-boyant showshoe hare keeping them afloat in the surface film.
