Had started to tie up a few and as always picked up a few helpful techniques from the video. Much appreciated and am anxious for warmer weather to give this good looking pattern a try. <br /><br />BillAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14019211744820354404[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6357628043625997901.post-91717681030963598002017-12-20T17:31:28.407-05:002017-12-20T17:31:28.407-05:00Hi Matt,<br /><br />Your improved sparkle dun tie is fantastic, professionally done.

Look at my September posts this year and you&#39;ll see a piece I did - it was the only fly we used and we clobbered fish.<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />Matt Matt Groberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14729161746029381781[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6357628043625997901.post-34102636998554103012017-12-20T10:20:03.849-05:002017-12-20T10:20:03.849-05:00Hey Matt,<br /><br />First off, I&#39;m glad you enjoyed your trip West over the summer! I moved from Corning, NY to Denver 2 1/2 years ago so I love getting your east coast info as well. Looks like you crushed them, to which I am not surprised. Love the improved sparkle dun pattern. I have a feeling the fish on the South Platte/Pan/Eagle/etc. are going to have a hard time refusing that baby come March! Thanks again for the amazing posts and sincere love for our sport. You and Tim have been an inspiration to me for years with your impeccable videos. Merry Christmas and tight lines my friend!Mayfly Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01048083950851240623[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6357628043625997901.post-13861523322058782942017-12-19T19:39:03.702-05:002017-12-19T19:39:03.702-05:00thanks Matt!
