coryg Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hello Chicagoland Bassbuggers, I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and I wish you a Happy New Year. We are resuming our 4th Monday Fly Tieing schedule for the 2011 season. The next meeting is Monday 1/24/11. Please note that this will be a Fly Tieing event as well as a PLANNING meeting. Since we have lost our "home" at One More Cast, we need a good turn out of Bassbuggers, to dicuss a variety of logistical topics. We will meet at John Loebach's garage in Lombard, IL (near I-355 and North Ave). Get there between 6 & 6:30pm - we'll order some pizza. Also, this will be a "Foam Fly Night". I'll lead out on a pattern, but would also like others to bring in there favorite foam flies for the group to see (and tie). Please come out - we need your input in planning our "Where/When/Who/What" future for the Chicagoland Bassbuggers. See you there, CoryG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim bielecki Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I plan to attend. Also, I will be bringing rubber leg material for everyone...it's only one color though; white. As a tip, if you have any old bungee cords, cut them open....many of them are made of strands of rubber; perfect for legs or jigs! I don't have any foam....any suggestions on where to pick some up?

coryg Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi Jim, Michael's and other Craft Stores have 11 x 17 sheets of 1/8" foam usually for less than $1 each. Lots of colors, too. Here's a tip for you, pickup up a sheet of the baby blue color and use it as a "placemat" underneath your fly tying area. It really helps your vision and focus when tying. See you 4th Monday!
