Yes, but his job was teaching fly fishing and fly tying. But by the time we were working together filming, he'd pretty much retired. He didn't watch TV; during the day, he fished or worked in his garden, which he loved. The evenings were for fly tying. You may not want to tie these patterns or have the time. But learn from these, and you'll make better decisions when buying flies. There's a huge range in quality, use this information to make decisions about what to buy that will catch on a difficult day. It's also about what you want out of fly fishing. I always get much more of a thrill if I catch a fish on a fly that I've tied myself. And I'm rubbish, my flies look like something the cat dragged in.
Outstanding tie.
Absolutely beautiful work
Gorgeous well done
RIP my good friend .....
