Flies by Alan Podell

I acquired these beautiful Catskill flies from Alan Podell years ago in a fly swap here on FAOL. I posted them on the swap page if anyone is interested.Jim Smithhttps://gifyu.com/image/SgKX5

Nice looking flies , I would be tempted to fish them

[James Smith]

Steve,That's my point. These are too pretty to fish and should be in someone's collection if they collect classic Catskill fly patterns.Jim Smith

Agree with not fishing them. I have a box of collectable (as I call them) that I wouldn't fish for anything. For example, some of them were tied for me by Tony Spezio years ago during a visit. Everyone probably remembers the Chill Pepper. The colors had to be just prefect. He also made me a bamboo rod that I cherish.
