Well, now that is a fairly inaccurate statement. Not your opinion of applying Hubris…that’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it. But fly tyers have been applying their names and identifying themselves with patterns since as far as I can remember. Does Wulff ring a bell?....Clouser?....Griffiths?....Gordon?

I have about 150 personal patterns over the years. Many inspired by others and I try to name them accordingly whenever that was my intent. I believe I’ve applied my identification to 3? Wouldn't apologize to anybody for them.
