    Default Old fly lines

    Anyone have any inventive uses for old fly lines? Seem's a shame just to toss them out.

    If they are usable at all, send them to me. I'll give them some extra life with the Scouts.

    Tying up newspaper? They are relatively strong so im sure you can find something to do with them.

    We have 5 cats and they think back-yard 'cat fishing' is great sport.
    I use a big 'bob' fly of colorful bucktail and saddlehackle but sometimes the cats will go for the line instead.
    It pays to use an old one
    The simpler the outfit, the more skill it takes to manage it, and the more pleasure one gets in his achievements.
