Baron 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2021 Very nice, artistic and simple. Do you fish them and if so for what. Or do you display them in Mystic Seaport. I really like these classic old-timey looking flies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet back in the period all the rich ship owners were off in the Catskills or Bershires during the Summer fishing with these beauties. Awesome fly Flytyer! This past summer I picked up some wool from a vender. Grey and also white, palmful of each. free. They do so much there. I'm pretty much there for the boats but all the seasonal events and displays add to the atmosphere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
