Some of the really great tyers that took me under their wing as a kid and all through my life made the big difference between hobby, and a passioned business. Passion, practice, many hours on the water, study of Entomology, and believing in the ability that God gave you. There are so many great tyers out there that don't have a business or Fly Shop. Back when I was studying Music in Undergrad and Grad School, I had Professors who were Fly Fishermen that told me that my Flies were great, and that I should sell them. I developed from hobby to a side business. Now, like music, I have taken the passion, and turned it into a full business. Even the great legends know that there is always something more to learn, are humble, and always willing to pass their knowledge to others. This is true in all areas of life. Thank the Teachers !!!!!
