Re: pink toy
Hey, that's NICE.....make a great Steelhead fly on the right hook. i say as i take another bite of Rocky Road Ice Cream and Banana..... .....thank God for Sharpies.....life would simply be unbearable wiffout them.....
Once i found this styrofoam toilet seat.....well, that's what it looked like after i took alllllllllll the Claret Schlappen feathers off of it..............found it in a local antiques shop.....bought it.....still usin' the feathers.....but i took that toilet seat thing and put flies stuck in it from allllll the different fly tyers at the Sowbug Roundup one year, and we auctioned it off at the dinner, for over $200 to raise money for conservation.
