Thanks Stewart. You are correct about the superglue. In ever spot where I tie in the foam, I usually add a drop of superglue just to secure everything in there. Let me know how they work for you.

You mention Super Glue in materials, then not again in instructions. I assume you use it between dubbing and foam to help stabilize the foam

No pressure. I have been having fun tying and getting ready. I really have to get after it now to get my boxes full. Looking forward to it. It will be a good time one way or the other.

If it does those will be really nice hat decorations and we will be fishing yellow stones, caddis, and calibaeatus.

Boy, pressure is on to put you on fish based on the folks waiting for the results.

My fingers are crossed. We’ll see here soon enough if my hard work pays off. Thanks for the well wishes.

Thanks Bruce. I love the foam stuff because it is so cheap to tie with and extremely durable. Glad I could help. I have some more that I am planning on putting up there too. Thanks again and stay tuned. Let me know how the minis work for you out there.

I love it because it’s really hard to sink. Also the way you explain and show it, its easy to use and create great flies.

Thanks again
