I received a package yesterday from Bob Jacklin of Jacklin's Fly Shop in West Yellowstone. We have developed a friendship over the years as I greatly admire his fly tying/fly fishing. He is a wonderful man.
The package contained these Green Drake Adults and Green Drake Cripple/Emerger patterns. It was a wonderful gift and included a personal letter suggested that maybe we could fish a half day together this coming summer.

We met him in the shop once and visited about the big fish he caught down where we were fishing - he was really nice to us.
Nice flies/present!! Merry Christmas from Florida.

Wow, what a wonderful surprise Byron. That' really is some kind'a kool!!
I met Bob a couple summers ago whilst staying at Campfire Lodge, just downstream from where he took that huge brownie. Great guy and very warm and friendly.
Love these sort of goodwill surprises. I'm happy for ya. Too bad though, you're missing all our snow and sub-zero temps.................................;))
Me.
Always nice on Xmas. Great gift Byron!
