I posted this on another board but I thought you guys might enjoy. --------------JaD




After staying in a camp ground and fishing most of May in Central Pa, I finally got a chance to clean my truck.I was sweeping the floor and my wife stopped me. Cindi could not figure out why I had this three mile smile on my face. Well only a fly guy would understand, I was sweeping up yellow and brown spinners.
Under sworn oath the above is a true statement.

They fasten red (crimson red) wool around a hook, and fix onto the wool two feathers which grow under a cock’s wattles, and which in colour are like wax.

After hitting the brown drake hatch on Skaneateles Lake just right a few times, I was picking the duns and spinners out of my vehicle and gear for weeks. It made me smile, too.
