I'll start off redundantly in regard to the fly tying topic but I thought I would open a new can of worms on something I take very personal. Tying is an art that's for sure. Everyone who does it has a pattern they kinda molded into their own. That's what I enjoy about it. However, I have a serious problem with these damn imported flys from some place communist or 3rd world. I'm making a plea to everyone here to find ways to support local folks or someone who resides here in the good old US of A when you buy flys. Furthermore, I can't believe when I go into the standard box type sporting good chain store that they seem ignorant to the fishing heritage in my area. I guess in a nutshell, all those reasons are why I make my own stuff now. Another thing is I don't have to go somewhere to get something I need...I just make it home with the advantage of making it better to fish my local streams.
