Is there a plan and or time frame to open up the fly recipes link on the site?
I don't know how labor intensive managing a website is, forgive the question if it is a real pain in the stones.

I would actually like to start doing this, but I can't offer info on how difficult it is to put it on the web page.
I think it would be cool to have a fly recipe along with a picture of the fly pattern, and at the bottom a little blurb describing the tying sequence or whatever. I think Chad would find it particularly useful. It is also a really good way to disperse to the team new fly pattern ideas that people may come up with.

I am going to put something together today and send it to Meat as a possible template for later entries to follow.

Maybe we could even do it so that the main screen shows just thumbnail pictures of the flies (much as the photo pages do now), scrolling over a thumbnail shows the name of the pattern, and clicking on a thumbnail brings up a larger picture of the pattern, along with recipe and notes on tying it. Clicking on a thumbnail would bring up a page that looks much like one of the team roster pages, but with a picture of the fly and directions how to tie it. I don't know if that requires alot of work to do or not.

Thoughts?

I have sent a draft fly-recipe entry to Meat via email for his review and comment. Perhaps it will be posted on the website soon after any necessary changes are made.

Jesus, Mike! Get off my back!! Wtf?!?

No - I actually tried a couple times but I can't seem to take good pictures of flies with my camera. Being that the pics would be the main attraction, I have not yet published any fly recipies.

Mega, your suggestion is most superb and I shall construct the recipe section in said fashion. I have not viewed you submission yet, but will be doing so this evening. Bender's camera takes righteous macro shots, so I'll probably borrow it take the photos of my flies. Anyone else is welcome to submit their own recipes and pics. Doug - no Pube-as.
