Just got back from the holiday from heck. Supposed to be back before Christmas. Only a week late, as my plans were changed for me right after we left. Flies are tied and will be mailed when the post office opens today (31) I will use overnight express mail. You should have them by Saturday.

Since I am completely fed up with the holidays, I have some ice fishing flies. They do fit the theme, because once, about 10 years ago, the ice was in early, and I got to fish on Christmas. (Always be careful on ice, and if you are not completely sure things are safe, don't go out on it.)

Ice fishing is great fun, but it sure is hard to cast into that little hole, and the back casts are even harder in a shanty!

Everybody have a great 2010!
