~$1.00 per fly............another bargain for "better than commercial ties".
Carl's flies are very durable too.
He tied thousands of flies for Kiene's.

Many years ago I learned this from Bob Giannoni.
After Bob bought some commercially tied dry flies he would take some thin head cement and put some on the head
and some under the tail.
Most would flatten the barbs then and some would put Scotchgarde on them before putting them in a fly box.

Over the years we had some great fly tiers who did custom flies for the Kiene's:
Joe Shirshac, Dave Hudson, Galen Geller (Oregon Salmon), Bob Scheidt, Jay Murakoshi, Carl Blackledge, Tim Au-young, and a few
others.

John, Thanks for the phone call, the flies are sold to you. I must sell them too cheap, they usually only last one day.
If any body else wants the same deal contact me and I will tie up another box .
