Thanks Colton. That is very kind of you to say. I know that not everyone enjoys tying flies, but I really do like sitting down and tying up a traditional pattern or trying something new. You are well on your way and I look forward to seeing your patterns in the future. Thank you again. Good luck this weekend.

If my flies look that good once I have been tying for the period of time you have (which is inproportional to the neatness of your ties) I will be one happy man.

I see a few SOS nymphs in there without the red KF, never thought of doing hat, but it is a good idea, especially for when the trout get picky.

I hope the hopper bite is still on for this weekend when I go hit some streams!

Fly tying is fun and fishing in the fall is my favorite time.
