Hi tob1,

I have been very impressed with some of your flies. You seem to be very inventive and original in some of them. Keep up the good work and thanks for the great pictures.

Frank

Re: Caddis adult

Well, Tob1, I'm a fan of cdc and use it quite often. As I said before, I like your work and the tips you give, such as that hot glue technique you use. Is the VAG filter from a VAG car filter or is it something else?

Re: Caddis adult

The VAG filter is the pollen filter (indoor air filter) in the VW car. It is colored by hand and sold in Norway.

Re: Caddis adult

Thanks. I thought it was a pollen filter and was wondering about the color. I might take apart a Honda pollen filter and color it with...er...maybe marker...to see if that works.
