I had the pleasure of meeting Don Ordes at the International FT Symposium recently and given the tour of the famous Bates, make that "Baits" Motel ! I hope you all at one time or another get to meet Don and his cast of characters...talk about having a good belly laugh.. still makes me smile when I think about it. Any of you know Don and seen his work?

Hi mantis,
We know Don well and yes his humor really shows via his fly tying creations. They are really awesome! Take care & ...

Al, Don is the kind of guy I'd love to live next door to. I think. He is one funny and talented man!
Is Don Ordes the guy that makes the mouse flies and the blue marlin and tuna flies, and other novelty files that I can't remember now?
If so, then I went by his vise on Saturday at the Symposium and peered over the shoulders of a crowd as he was showing off all his items.
Very unique!
