ANOTHER GREAT IDEA RICK!!!! ON THE FLY every two weeks why don't you do an old time favorite , the WOOLY BUGGER! MAKE IT IN PURPLE OR BLACK !? WHAT YA THINK BUDDY?

If anyone has a special request on a fly they would like to tie let me know and I will give it my best shot at tying it. Or someone else in the group will. Or even better we could do a "Fly of the Week" and by spring we will all have learned to tie a few new pattern to add to our box. I believe the fly of the week should be a basic beginner type fly so everyone who want to participate can and the supplies wont break the bank. I will be happy to provide dubbing for anyone in the group who needs it if I'm able to make it, for free. Someone can pick a color and a fly and I can make a batch of dubbing if needed. ( any thought from on having a "fly of the week or every two weeks"?

I'm still in the learning process as you may know so I'm trying to learn all I can that will aid me in the learning process. Who knows maybe I can even contribute at least that's my plan.
