Steve, I enjoy fly tying. Have a Syd Glasso spey box and a Walt Johnson Spey box and a Bill McMillan winter Hope box and a Haig Brown golden girl box and a box or tube flies and a box of general practitioners....

Will do more pics in the future.

Walt Johnson Deep Purple Spey Flies.


Old trout I'd have to hire a couple gillies to carry all the fly boxes but that's what happens when you tie a lot and your fishing time gets compressed due to family and soccer coaching and referreeing responsibilities. Stopped the coaching and reffing so I can devote more time to fishing.

Dave, I know the feeling. I tie for about three hours every morning. The only reason I don't have lots of boxes is I will look in one , decide I don't like the way a fly(s) is ties, take it apart and start over. I love the Deep Purple Spey. It is one of the most beautiful flies there is. again nice ties.
