Don, With your permission, would like to donate 2 dozen steelie/trout flies for auction at the clave with proceeds going to your organization. Hopefully, I can get a few others to follow suit... Might help draw a few of the List's non-tyers out to the fun.
I have a few flies for your viewing pleasure at http:/www.steelheader.net Look under Steelhead flies... I am on top row. The pictures aren't the greatest but should suffice. Additionally, http:www.virtualflybox.com. Search: John Abbott. Lastly, my cheesy homepage has a hair-wing Max Canyon Spey. http:/www.hometown.aol.com/~speyflies > --- rderedfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > What is Caddis for Kids? > > Caddis for Kids is a 24 hour, fly tying marathon.
