Bart Durham Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 Thanks guys, just ordered my first assortment of flies. Always wondered what a meat whistle looked liked, now I know. Quote
Scott Ferguson Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Posted September 8, 2012 To me, the "meat whistle" always sounds like something you wouldn't want your kids to know about. Quote
Bart Durham Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 Tom's newly named fly, "foxy crawdad" has to be included in top local crayfish flies. Quote
