All, I am a newbie to this site. I have been visiting for a few days and there is some good stuff here so I thought I'd introduce myself.
I have been fishing for 50 years and now only fly fish and tie my own and I fish for anything that swims. No barbs.
I'm a disabled Marine rifleman of the VN war. Two PHs.
I've made a living turning wood for 35 years and my work now is some turning but mostly scupture.I find myself tieing flys most of the time.
My other is a potter. We live on 25 acres in the NC mountains with three dogs and a garden and I have great fishing for wild and stocked trout close to my home. We have been kayaking for over ten years and I have a fishing kayak along with a couple of touring boats. Lucy has two touring boats of her own.
I found this site through healingwaters as I was doing some research on healing because of the work I do with disabled vets of our current conflict.
Anyway I will be active in the swaps and if any of you get to Avery county NC fishermen and fisherwomen get a studio tour at my place.
