Celtics fan for 60+. Johnny Most & Tommy were right. The other team has knives & axes.
I can’t fish now, so I tie flies for Project Healing Waters, a program of Wounded Warriors. Fly fishing heals. Tying heals me from not fishing. Be kind & help others.

Do you have an extension magnet?
If you tie flies & ever drop a hook (or even many hooks like me) or small steel parts/tool, then you might find an extendable magnet quite useful.

I’m discovering it isn’t easy to get a clear photo of a fuzzy fly like The Usual by Fran Betters. #flyfishing #flytying

I have been trying to document the flies I donate & improve both my photos on my iPhone & their alt text descriptions. This 2nd pic is a try at showing the bubble veil of gold over an orange bodied Emergent Sparkle Pupa.

Do you know the name of this fly? Someone gave me one to make copies & said it was quite effective but didn’t know the name. Ingredients: Black bead, #14 hook nymph, olive or black thread, olive marabou tail & body, silver wrap, checkered antennas.

Just finished a batch of sand eels for my nephew. He’s a commercial fisherman who live lines & wants them as teasers. Now I’m tying rainbow smelt.
