Yeah, what ol blue said...
I can't tye worth a donation so i'm out of that picture but i can understand giving away flies that have meaning....
like a Steven McGarthwaite gift of an Al Campbell tyed SWAPHF fly...given to me at the '03 ID FI. Still got it...
carry it in a flybox Parn gave me same FI. Al was there too. That's him in the pic Lotech posted in another thread
...offering his hand to me in friendship just as the pic was taken. Memorable times.
So I'm thinking all that meaning would be lost if i donated it and din't know where it wound up. Not that the original
idea isn't a great one. We do get plenty of chances to donate to the 'new guy' though. It's easy to tell when
they say they already have (insert number under a dozen) flies to fish with.
Send them a couple dozen assorted maybe.
