What's in your vise?

Is that glow in the dark material on the flashy flies?

Yes, it's glow in the dark Flashabou from Hedron, I was in Seattle yesterday and picked up some pink and green at Patrick's to try out from the beach. We'll see how it goes!

Later in the year when it doesn’t get light so early, charge them up with a flashlight and cast them out into the dark. It looks like tracer bullets flying by.

Just curious on what hackle cape/saddle you are using for the hackle in wings. Gorgeous flies.

From a Whitting American rooster cape. Thank you about the flies.

I just grabbed some (same two colors) to play around with on albacore flies...I have no idea if it helps or not, but certainly looks cool.

I may end up filling in the green above the purple with purple but I'll see what it looks like in the water first.

A UV flashlight does it even faster, and doesn’t seem to blow your night vision as bad.
