    Default A question for Norm Frechette

    Norm,

    I notice a similarity between your tying style and that of Dick Talleur. Did you ever spend any time with him? I've really enjoyed seeing all the flies you've posted here and elsewhere.

    Regards,

    hi scott

    i have only seen dick talleur tie flies at new england fly tying shows. i have never taken a lesson from him. i wish i could tie as good as him

    my fly tying beginnings are from colorado in the 1980's when i took lessons from a guy named ed buchanan. we worked together at martin marietta aerospace company

    i came back to connecticut in 1992. i have taken tying lessons from mike martinek (streamers) and don bastian (wet flies)

    how about your beginnings?

    do you have a good list if fly tying blogs?
