Generally speaking, NOTHING GOOD ever happens AFTER 1AM...
There are exceptions...
BlackLucy fished SLOWLY on Intermediate line through a promising ambush point...

Things that go BUMP in the night...
The forums are very quiet
The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF form is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Pete,
Pete,
Great fly and a really nice fish. I wish I had something like that, which went bump in the night in these parts. The only thing bumping here right now is the garbage containers scooting around due to the heavy wind... :-(

Those are bad-ass! Whenever I
Those are bad-ass! Whenever I tie stuff with long tails, the old farts here tell me it won't catch fish because the hook is so far ahead of the strike area. However, I tied my bucktail streamers with a little length and people who fish them for bass always get the strikes, expecially when fishing my yellow perch pattern. The white/striper bass hybrids LOVE them!
