For this weeks “Something Old” I tried to find something about the history of the tube fly (since I have been tying a lot of it lately), I found this article<\/a>\u00a0talking about the origin of the tube and \u00a0Mr. Alexander Wanless who in “The Angler And The Thread Line” from 1932 describes this fly (see the plate on the article referenced). Well: not much of description, rather a picture of it, so I set out with what I had in my box of material (that resembled) and came up with this one.<\/p>\n
