Very cool. :D I'm also grateful for the writings and influence of Mr. Nemes. Thanks for sharing.

Although those particular flies aren't his patterns, his writing had a very big influence on both my attitude and understanding of soft hackles. I'm sure that goes for many folks tossing those things around.

What a treasure, very cool Chase.

I can attribute my love for tying and fishing towards Syl as well.

A Nemes fan forever,

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.

Mr. Nemes is directly responsible for Soft-Hackles joining my arsenal in the mid-70's - nice tribute.
