We had a guy stop by the shop one day.........
.......he said had been tying flies for many years and that he got started when he was in the Boy Scouts many years ago.
He brought in 6 large clear plastic containers filled with pretty nice trout flies of all sizes and patterns.
He said he never had the desire to fly fish or anyone who would take him.
He said the highlight of his life was one even in the summer when he was up in the town of Truckee, California.
He was driving along the river and spotted a gentleman waded into the Truckee River fly fishing.
He stop, got out of is car and watched the man casting his fly over the beautiful water.
The angler noticed him and came out of the river and over to him to save "Howdy."
The man told him he had been tying flies sense he was a young man but had never fly fished.
He asked the angler if he would like some of is flies to try out?
He had boxes of flies in his trunk so the angler picked out some.
He said he angler waded back out in the water after tying on one of his creations.
Then it happened, the angler hooked and landed a large wild trout which many both men very happy.
He said it as so rewarding because it made him feel like he had been tying some pretty good flies.
