    The medicine bag was a personal gift to the boss and his Mrs. Therefore, they extracted it for their personal use and benefit. Cute touch with some of those items from the Rx. I'm certain they were thrilled with all those "personal items."

    To further entice you, into bidding on this rare and obviously valuable hat and assorted "accessories", Namekagon, (Nam).....(out of either a devious sense of humor, and/or, the kindness of his heart), wishing to make this auction a great success, has thrown in his very own, highly prized, "Singing Trout"!
    I'm sure, after hearing several of these "singing fish species" myself many times, Nam is making a HUGE, personal sacrifice, by donating his to this auction.
    (The "Singing Trout", is brand new and still in its original packaging)
    Thank you, Nam!

    Joe -

    Can you make this a "STICKY" so it stays at the top of the SOUND OFF Forum?

    Thanks...........

    It's sort of silly to me, to auction off some beautifully tied flies and expertly crafted furled leaders and yet, not to offer at least PART of an outfit to use them with!
    So, just to make things a bit more "interesting", I'm going to also throw in a barely used, but highly cared for.............. STH fly reel. Model #MRPOP-#3 with two cassettes.
    With the historical hat, alone, not to mention all the extras we've listed that comes with it, PLUS that lovely, (some day valuable) "Singing Trout" and finally a quality fly reel, all for the winnning bidder to walk away with, what will you bid?
    Already, today, someone is going to get it all for only $10.00!??!

    Hey Flybinder, I don't suppose that I could get you to remove that extraneous, second "i" and convert Dillion into Dillon, could I? Dillon is a name, not a quantity... (I'm not exactly sure how much a "dillion" is, but I see it often seems to apply to me. It mustn't be too much as the IRS tried to do a "dillion" tax refund to me a few years ago.)
