  1. Hi All I am well aware of this turd - i have been dealing with his scams for the past two months. I am the Project Healing Waters Program Lead at Quantico, and "Scott" has been trying to scam gear and $$$ from the businesses and individual supports of the Quantico PHWFF Program. "Scott Martin" is a vet (which makes this worse) but he is a SCAMMER, he lives in Virginia, and has attempted to reach into all the Fly Fsihing related forms for his scams. He has also reached out directly to vendors as well! If you have any other questions please contact me at [email protected] Marty Laksbergs, USMC Ret. PHW Program Lead Quantico
  2. Happy New Year Blane Actually we could use rods, reels, waders, boots and fly tying vices and materials (hooks, threads, tools, etc). Thanks Marty Laksbergs, USMC Ret. Co-Director Ft Belvoir & Quantico Chapters PHW 6718 Catskill Road Lorton, VA 22079 703-282-0931

  4. Hi As a former Marine, Fly Fishing Guide, Instructor, and Co-Director for the Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing (PHWFF) Marine Wounded Warrior Regiment at Quantico and Ft Belvoir Chapters, I love the Warriors we help and support. We help the Warriors (Soldiers and Marines) find that “New Normal” through fly fishing and fly tying. There is nothing better than having a Wounded Soldier or Marine catch that first fish on a fly rod (on a fly that they tied), crack jokes and make remarks toward other military service members that makes us realize that what we do is working. These simple acts help the Warriors open up with the volunteers and participants. That makes us realize that what we do makes a difference and we are grateful to be part of this program. PHWFF Ft. Belvoir and Quantico Chapters provide instruction on fly tying, fly rod building, and casting. Our Volunteer Fly Fishing Guides and Instructors are second-to-none; many have years of fly fishing experience and come from all walks of life. Most of our volunteers are currently serving in the Military or are retired. With Walter Reed Medical Center closing and assigning wounded Warriors between Bethesda Naval Medical Center and the new Fort Belvoir Community Hospital , we have an increase in Warriors that we need to reach. We have reached our limit on the fly tying equipment, so I am asking for your kind assistance. As ALL of the equipment we provide to the Warriors is free to them, when we need to replenish our supplies, we reach out to volunteers, donors and donor organizations to help us fill the need. We are in need of tying supplies, tying vises and materials to replenish the supply as we have successfully increased our numbers. Because of that, I am respectfully asking for a donation of any Vises and materials you wish to donate? If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks for your support. Thanks Marty [email protected]
  5. Hey All I am off to Gatlinburg TN for a week of fly fishing and I would like to know before I head off and with enough time to tie a few what is recommended to bring. I will be fishing the Great Smokey Mountain streams. Thanks Marty
  6. Thanks All I have some more things to go on and try. Marty
  7. Hi All I am new to both the fly fishing (2years) and fly tying (5 months). I live in the Northern Virginia area, and travel as part off my job - so the travel kit goes on every trip. I fish a lot in West Virginia and here in Virginia as my family and I love to camp. I have a small setup for tying and I am using the vise that came with the "Kit". So I am looking forward to learning from all on this forum. Thanks Marty
  8. Hi - I am new to fly tying and one of the areas I am having a problem with is breaking the tying thread half way through a newly tied fly. :wallbash: Any suggestions, help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Marty
