Half wells template issue.

Hello all. Several years back there was a template published in RM of a half wells fly grip. I allowed someone to borrow said issue and have since lost it. Does anyone know the issue? I'd like to replace it.

Unless something has changed the magazine website back issue page has a table of contents for each issue listed.

Hello Mike.

There is a 2 lists; of sorts for vol-1 thru 7 in the ^"LIBRARY"^ at the top of the page.

But I know of no lists covering the majority of issues other than the one I have made up for finding articles easier than going through each & every magazine looking for a specific article.

Thanks Michael.

I usually only spend 1 day reading the issue and ½ a day inputting it into my list.
I feel I need to understand what the articles are about before inputting them because I put them in several ways.
