EvilTyeDye's New Hobby - EvilTyeDyeTwin - 04-25-2013 I am facing a possilbe meniscus surgery on my right knee in the coming weeks. Backcountry skiing is over for me this year so I thought I might as well invest in a new hobby. My very 1st hand tied fly! My 2nd tied fly.

Just dont drink too many beers and try, that can be a challenge[:p] [signature] Re: [Jazzperch1] EvilTyeDye's New Hobby - EvilTyeDyeTwin - 04-25-2013 The surgeon told me I would have some time to kill (about 3 weeks) so I went on a diet, and bought the gear to start tying! The equipment $150 The materials $60 The book $20 Having your twin walk in the door, look at your hand tied fly and hearing him say, "I hope you bought me some of those"...... PRICELESS!!!!!!!!
