There are so many great anglers who have become legends in their own right and have developed many wonderful and useful flies for the BT. My GUESS to your question would be Cal Bird and his fly the "Bird's Nest".Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05531862523800400200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7053564017904440722.post-8374807269246564022011-05-02T10:15:25.679-07:002011-05-02T10:15:25.679-07:00John---Bingo again!

From a trout fisherman's point of view, Jack Horner originally tied the "Horner's Deer Hair fly", better known today in the West (and all over) as the dependable "Humpy".Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05531862523800400200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7053564017904440722.post-30953708026053677732011-05-01T08:55:43.389-07:002011-05-01T08:55:43.389-07:00John----Correct.
