"Aw, gees, guys...." My main reason for doing it was that I would love to be able to fish with him and with work and life its self I felt that would never come about since we have all these miles between us, so, I thought to myself, well, if I cannot fish with him one of my rods and some of my flies will just have to do it for me! Paul, I am just happy that you were able to have a great day and I am proud to know that the little thing I done contributed something towards it. You deserved this day and many more! Just remember that now that the fish in that one pond have seen the flies, you will have to hide behind a tree the next time you go there to tie the fly on your line or you will be molested by the fish. Been several here that have been to the ER because they did not take my advise seriously!! I am very happy that you had a great day! Please let me know how some of the other flies work on your fish. This is great! I have always wondered how some of my flies would work on other streams and areas. I am bad for not using the same flies everyone else does. Must be something that comes from my bass tournament days. I am always looking outside the "box". I am thrilled to know that in some little way I was able to contribute to a good day of fishing for you. Do it again and let me know how it goes.
I think of you and your family often,
Warren
Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
