Small businesses and that includes small fly shops are in many ways like the family owned farms. They are being slowly squeezed out of existance by large businesses and corporate farms, Prior to retiring I was a park ranger, several of our maintinance guys worked full time jobs to support their farming, which they loved. Corporate farms do NOT care about you or me only the bottom line. I just wish I had a larger local shop than I do here, but at least I have one and that is a place to start. Y'all take care, John.
