Hi! not being a biologist myself but a dedicated fisherman, I've many times seen multiple ragworm action at surface both in late winter nights, june summer nights and during more "traditional" early spring "swarmings".
Did a search on Nerieis Virens and found following publication: Migration of the Sandworm Nereis virens during winter nights (D. Dean, Marine Biology 45 165-173 1978)
Here the swarming behaviour is attributed to nightly migration during low tide ebb current and not spawning. This should be of interest to most seatrout fishermen!
My experience is that a black longtailed slim palmer-hackeled fly is very efficient during such nights and that a weighted fly is preferable to a "striping" fly as less fish ar missed at the strike.
Best regards

be VERY careful when heating bees wax..it DOES NOT boil, but will ignite to a very hot fire. you should use a double boiler. aluminum (and all metals except stainless steel) will darken the beeswax. I use a 2-dup glass measuring cup to melt the wax in a small pan of simmering water.

Here's a source for bronze and orange silver lined 11/0 seed beads. Size 11/0 is about 1.8 mm in diameter.

Gabi,
I am no expert, just a critical user who have seen a whole bunch of jackets in my time, and seen some pretty stupid as well as some brilliant solutions to different issues.
I have no plans regarding starting a production. Such endeavors cost money, and even though there's a potential income in the other end, I'm not the one who will take the chance. I have seen others try, and while some have succeeded, others have failed miserably, and I'm not really willing to risk that.

hi martin!
haha i live in canda (first toronto and now montreal- read- colder place) and think need to write this type of analysis as a guide on buying a winter jacket. i would love to design one and put it in production. did you ever think of doing that (you certainly seem to be an expert!)? actually i was looking for an online guide on how to design a jacket and put it in production.
cheers

Picric acid was used quite frequently in period bookbinding. I would love to have some, as a coat of picric acid and then a coat of potassium carbonate yields a wonderful burnt orange on calf leather. But I don't think I have the cojones.

Hello Florian, how did you get on with the flounder?
We are indeed in to a new trout season, but I have yet to wet a line, just too busy. I am heading down to the Tongariro area in early November for a few days fishing so have my my fingers crossed for some good weather.
All the best.

I'm trying to find a way to store my fly lines off the reels. Somehow the package spools and boxes disappear. Is there somebody that sells spools ?

Hey, I call them as I see them.
It's a boneheaded move to write about a material and then leave out the name.
I'm not your mommy, following you around, wiping your behind, cleaning your messes. Besides, if I had written you, then only I would have gotten the name of the material and not everyone on GFF.
Speaking of that, you STILL haven't posted it. yet.

Re: reflective amber eyes
I'd try silver lined amber seed beads slipped on mono diameter they'll fit over. Heat the ends slightly so they won't slide off and them dip in the epoxy. Try a craft store like Michaels.

George,
Well, we don't have a phone number and don't want your credit card number!
But if you want a spinning block, you can try following the link to Siman's web site and click on the link "where to buy". There you will find dealers all over the world. I don't know where you are in the world, but many countries and a few US states are covered, and by following the links you can most likely find a phone number to call.
How you will then pay is up to you and the dealer...
Good luck!
Martin

Type in marabou in google and there is a site located in Canada that has very good blood marabou for tying. I've used them and they are prompt and reasonable. Ron

Real great video fishing for bass with popper, but what i don't like to see that people using a jaw grip and pull the fish out the water, there under jaw could easily break but that's something from America !!!
