    As much as I like fly tying, I'm afraid that if I could only do one it would be fly fishing for me. Fly tying would go.

    I tie more than I fish and love it, but it would go in favor of fishing. Tying is in the living room, fishing in nature.

    I'd give up the tying. When I'm too old the fish... I'd just trade. LOL


    Seeing as we're talking reality though... there's no reason to give up either one! WHEW!

    No doubt about it - fly tying.

    I sometime question why I ever started in the first place.

    Gotta fish, i enjoy working on flies but I love fishin. The whole time I'm putting a fly together I'm thinking this is the fly that's going to catch my next trophy. take a picture and let it go, of course.
