Haha, buggers are good but there are so many other flies that trout will hit.....lol. Hope to see your progress, show some pics.

I'm in the same boat as you, running out of hooks. Might make a run to BPS to look at reels for there spring sale and grab some hooks.

I stopped off at Lebaron yesterday. One guy came up to me as I was looking at their hooks and asked if I needed any help. I told him I'm looking for dry fly hooks, he then says there are more hooks on a stand further back in the store, so I go with him. Turns out the hooks he was showing me were snelled, and I told him that. Obviously he does not know a dam thing about fly tying, and I'd have to question his knowledge on fishing. What the hell is someone like that doing in a sports store, totally useless, give him a broom.......lol. I'll have to go to Bass Pro too if I ever plan to get the hooks I want. Lebarons is not the place for it, that's for sure.
