EvilTyeDye's New Hobby

[EvilTyeDyeTwin]

I am facing a possilbe meniscus surgery on my right knee in the coming weeks. Backcountry skiing is over for me this year so I thought I might as well invest in a new hobby.

My very 1st hand tied fly!


My 2nd tied fly.

hell ya tying your own patterns are sweet, its a good way to pass the time when you cant make it fishin.
Just dont drink too many beers and try, that can be a challenge[:p]

The surgeon told me I would have some time to kill (about 3 weeks) so I went on a diet, and bought the gear to start tying!

The equipment $150
The materials $60
The book $20

Having your twin walk in the door, look at your hand tied fly and hearing him say, "I hope you bought me some of those"...... PRICELESS!!!!!!!!
