Jon Barnes (Creationbear on several of the fly fishing forums) continues to fuel my interest in long hikes to the back country to chase trout that may never have seen a fly.
Recently I received a package from Jon and upon opening the metal tin I was immediately struck with the thought of the licorice candies "Good & Plenty". The pink dubbed bodies and the black and white hackled wings...all tied together to make a beautiful and uniquely different set of dry flies that I know would rise a native trout in far away pools.
With the edges of spring already in the air down here in the South...now is the time to plan on where to go.
