Hi Mark, Thanks for explaining CFFC&M. I live in California so I don't think I'll make it to one soon. I'm not the furled leader man - I thought that was Del. I saw that there was (is?) another Jim Collins on the list - I saw a fly he tied for a swap in one of the VFG pattern lists. Maybe he's the furled leader man. I wish there were something like the Catskill Fly Fishing Center here in California. If we had an organization that provided guest fly tying sessions every Saturday, I'd certainly try to attend regularly. Jim C

The CFFC&M is the Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum. My wife and i have a long history there. We actually used to rent an apartment there on top of the gift shop. We spend a lot of time there still. We also used to take care of and teach the kids there every year for the Trout in the Classroom project for and with Theodore Gordon Flyfishers of which we are still Conservation Committe members, and past board members. We go to their annual dinner each year and attend lots of events there including the special guest fly tying sessions which go on each and every SAt. during the season. later, mark >From: Tony Spezio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: [VFB] Boobie Fly >Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2003 15:14:39 -0500 > >was going to ask the same question >Tony [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Jim Collins wrote: > > > Hey Mark, what is CFFC&M - is that a local event for you? > > Jim C. > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Behalf Of mark romero > > Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 8:15 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: [VFB] Boobie Fly > > > > Yeah, Kreinik is GREAT stuff.
