[cool][#0000ff]Are you sure we didn't go to different schools together? I share a lot of your sentiments. I also use chartreuse a lot. And I also use red thread to finish off a lot of fly patterns...especially blacks and purples.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Wooly worms? Some of the first flies I learned to tie...with old pipe cleaners died different colors. Remember pipe cleaners? Used chicken feathers I found in my aunt's chicken coop. Over 50 years ago. And, wooly worms will still work as well today as they did then...just that nobody uses them because they are "old school". I also used red tag tails on just about every color wooly worm I tied. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]They say that great minds work in the same direction. Hmmmm...wonder what the opposite of that is.[/#0000ff]
