Wow, great response! He said he will be at the Sowbug later this year too, so if you are going there, make it a point to stop by his station. (After Rick's of course! We shoulda tried to get Rick to come on over too, but Council Bluffs is a ways from Lamoni just for a couple hours of tying.)

I have been eyeing the SEM flies for big deep gills this year.

Hmm, I wonder if he knows about our little corner of the Web here. . . . Might just have to point it out in case. . .
