Agree with Bill. Tie them and they will be even more special. Here are my suggestions. Patterns are all available at the VFB site:
King: Royal Coachman, Royal Wulff, any one of a million flies with the word "Royal" in them Queen: Damselfly Bishop: (Holy) Ghost Shrimp, Halo Mayfly Emerger Rook: Prince Nymph or Stonefly - (castles are made of stone. Work with me here people) Knight: Dragon Nymph (for the dragon-slayer) Pawn: Strawman, or the Parachute Adams (Why the Parachute Adams? Because you should always have at least eight of them in your box) ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Sanders" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, July 27, 2002 4:44 PM Subject: [VFB] Fly Fishing Chess Board > I'm looking for a special birthday gift for my Father.
