RAW's demo

[cardiac]

yesterday was fantastic. The dude's an artist. Twisted foam hoppers and salmonfly, Air-filled stonefly, an overhand stitch stonefly nymph. Thanks again Robert. Flysmyth enjoyed it to-he only had one donut during the presentation and that was at the beginning. We need to video you and market it. Chain stiches like grandma only faster.

[Flyin' Brian]

That was a great presentation, thanks again RAW. I think I will have some fun with your patterns!
Was also nice to see a couple of folks that I haven't seen for a while and to meet a couple more UOTF's.
Well worth the trip.

[FlySmyth]

I enjoyed it too. Raw is one witty cus.

Met a few of the guys I didn't know. How long you been around Flyin' Bian? Any time you want to go fishin' call me.

I've been tying some foam patterns and the big stone fly. Fun stuff. Can't wait to throw some of them this summer.

Great presentation and good to finally meet you RAW. Thanks for the materials too.

Keep up the good work!

[Caddfly]

Yeah, it was cool...tyed up some weaved hoppers today. That Flysmyth...I don't know about that guy though... :-)

RAW: I was reading in your book about the Camp Hull and the damsels. I remember back when I was a scout and seeing those damsel hatches. Those fish were clearing the water chasing those things. Great book. Great flies. Great demo. Thanks.

Also met a gentleman named RMAN. Been a member of UOTF for quite a while but mostly a lurker. RMAN is retired but a stillwater fanatic. RMAN if you need any help just ask. That's what this site is about. There is no stupid questions, right Flysmyth?

[FlySmyth]

No, Cardiac there are no stupid questions. There are some terribly stupid answers however.

Thanks for the demo RAW! It was nice, I didn't have time to pick up one of your books that day, is there anywhere that I can pick one up? Thanks in advance,
Shane

[RAW]

Thanks for the accolades. I enjoyed coming down and meeting many of you. Thanks for the invite Spencer. I'm working on being a little more charismatic!
Those interested can get the book direct online from Frank Amato Publishers, Barnes and Noble or direct from me. If you get it from me, you get my signiture and a fly, both of which are not that valuable, but hey it makes me feel special.

[cheech]

Very nice demo. Now I can weave without cutting the thread and re-attaching. Very nice patterns that are fairly quick ties. Thanks again RAW.


P.S. For those of you who missed this one, Flysmyth only had one Donut... He did, however, wear a cute little shirt with purple flowers on it! Always entertainment with that joker;)

[RMAN]

I too have realy enjoyed the tying demo. I have attended all the fly fishing seminars this winter and would like to thank Orvis they were realy interesting . Also a BIG THANK YOU to CARDIAC and JONI for their freindlyness and help. RON
