Sounds Great,
I am going to tie my friend's nymph "Whiskey River" catches all fish all seasons, and I am warning you guys it works so good that you have to hide behind a tree to tie it on. Mike I wonder if I turned you on to the Montana Nymph. It used to be the first wet fly I would use. I think sending a dozen and two dollars would be great, we could even enclose a self addressed bubble envelope and have you send us each a "Dirty Dozen" Thanks for stepping up. Mike, I got that CD off to you today.

Hey Jim,

I started fly tying when I move out to Spokane, as I recall I just liked the way the Montana fly looked and that it wasn't too hard to tie. I had a great day fishing it on (I believe) Hog Canyon (long, narrow lake south of Spokane). I caught rainbow after rainbow, it was an amazing day. My memory isn't good enough to remember if you introduced me to it. (got a few gray hairs in the attic you know)

This would be fun, but after 40 years of tying flys, I don't think I have a single fly in the box(ssssss) that have a name (LOL).

I've never done this before, so if there is room, give me the rules.
Too much water, so many fish, too little time.
