rickjc 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 Hello, I'm new here and wish I had found this forum sooner, so much information. About me, I have been tying since my teens and up until 9 years ago I lived and fished in the Catskill region of New York, but now I am a midwest fly fisher. I own a tackle shop in Charleston, IL which caters mostly to bass and other warm water species, though I do carry a selection of fly fishing and tying supplies. Every year I convert a few more unsuspecting souls. :devil: If you are in the area stop by and say hello. Rick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
