Ashley, My wife said I can have a wall in the den to display some of the flies I have from well known tyers. I would do this if I could find a frame large enough. It would have to cover the whole wall. In my last post I had a typo error. I posted that I saved my flies in plastic "tubes". That should of been "tubs" like the storage tubs you can get in department stores. Tony

I am thinking of mounting some of the fly swaps in shadow frames. Themes like Tarpon (I have a Tarpon scale that I would like to use as a centre piece) deer hair and stripped bass flies. If I find a picture or something connected with the swap name then I will mount them. But this will not happen for a while.
