don't feel sleepy yet, i could do a bit of "mise en place" for fly tying tomorrow & then i'm more likely to tie some flies if i have the requisite materials already out

What are you tying? I’ve been tying a bunch of parachute dry flies and hoping for prolific hatches this summer.

oo that's lovely! i kinda need to tie everything because i have gone way too long fishing without replenishing my flyboxes. Strangely, almost despite myself, after almost 30 years of flyfishing i've become a hardcore stillwater person & even interested in fishing chironomids, so i want to tie...

...a bunch of pupa imitations in different sizes and colours and see which ones work best on my little "backyard" lake. But i need a major restock of pretty much everything. This is also a thinly-disguised excuse to organize all my materials which have gotten pretty jumbled up

I know zero about lake chironomids, so it would be cool to learn. The other thing I’m tying are articulated crayfish flies for smallmouth bass.
