Hello all!
Just sending over a picture of one of my flies, and saying goodbye to flytying!
Life goes on and change, my eyes isn't that good anymore and the scubadiving take most of my time! So I have done my last fly! Selling out all my equipment!

Wolfgang.

That is a beautiful fly. Sorry to see a master tyer throwing in the towel.

Have you ever thought of teaching the art?

I wished I had someone here to teach the Classics.

Best of luck in the new venture.

I too dread the day when I have to stop.......don't know what I'll do when that day comes.

Best regards

Thanks guys! Yea I'm still fishing, but not that much as before!
Teaching...... hmm I live in Sweden and teaching over internet don't feels that fun, but i do help people from time to time with problems dressing classics, and i have for sure not forget how to do it :)
If no one wants to buy the stuff i maby doing a comback 2020:D

Over the winter I began tying the classics and know what is involved to tie these types of flies. I admire your work and wish I could scrounge up the money to buy many of your materials but when the USD is trading at $1.56 against the EURO, it makes it hard to buy overseas. Again great ties!!!!!
