My newest addiction

Lately, because of my new job, i have not been able to fish quite as much. I have went from 7 days a week, to about 1 or 2. To get my fix i have started fishing while you cant fish. Fishing when you cant fish includes tying flies, making leaders, organizing fly boxes, reading about fishing, and anything else fishing related. Everyday on my lunch break, i will pump out around a dozen flies. I have a huge collection of downloaded youtube videos, and Dustins fly box blog archived on my flashdrive (he really is a great fly tier). Today, Sunday, it rained, and i didnt get to go fishing, so I plan on waking up at 5:30 in the morning to go fishing before work. here are a few pics of my new addiction.

  2. haha, yea me too. I tried to get my brother to tie with me, he tied a big ole fat zebra midge, and that was his first and last fly he has tied. *sigh* I guess everyone isn't hooked the first time.

  3. Yeah! Me three! Totally hook on and slightly obsessed with tying. Never thought I'd love it so much, and started it for simply pragmatic reasons. But dang, it's fun!

    Glad I found your blog. Good stuff. I'll be following. :)
