Didn't know about the health problems. Stands to reason that he would need assistance for a "publication quality" fly.

Gary, Lefty had a stroke a couple of years ago, coupled with a heart attack. His hands are not as coordinated as they used to be. He is pretty recovered and says he's feeling good, but the efects of a stroke, as you know, can be permanent. At the Denver ISE show a couple of years ago, just after the attack, he had a hard time wrapping a fly. He's such a hardy person, though, and just worked his way right through it, blaming it on Pete Parker's vise, which he was using.
So if he needs a neat fly for a book photo, I'm not surprised that he has one tied for him from someone well-practiced.
