Thanks Bill.

Ken,

Very impressive set of flies. Nice Hatch!

Makes me think of fishing.

AWESOME! Congratulations Ron. I'm tickled you won the auction.

That's a steal. Someone got luck.

Doug - Those copies are superb! You've got these dialed in perfectly. I love the proportions and body taper.

Fishable art, at it's finest.

Bill - Did you wrap the silk body with a second bobbin, or by hand? I’m trying to figure out the tying sequence.

Handsome pattern.
