Thank you all for a great season...

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

As many of you know this was to be my first season without spinning gear, near the end of April I lost my vest stuffed full of flies I had tied over the winter. Well...

What can I say, thank you really doesn't cover it! You guys really came through for me. My time has been very limited due to work and family obligations, but because of your generosity it has been a flies only summer for me. I had more than enough flies to get me through the summer and I was covered for nearly every situation.

Here are a few of the fish I caught on the flies you so generously sent to me!

And the best for last, My Daughters first Trout, on a dryfly no less.

There were plenty more to boot, just not any pictures.

Thanks again, I'll try to return the favor to each and every one of you someday! smile.gif

Looks like a great season......especially those Smallmouth. I'm glad to see you launched those trout up on the bank to take a picture, hopefully you left them there. We can't have introduced species like that polluting our water biggrin.gif
