Fly Tying At Charlies Flybox- Saturday 2/2/113

Join me on Saturday February 2nd at Charlie's Flybox as I present Fly Patterns of the Arkansas River.
I always Thank Charlie for asking a hack like me to tie for his customer and interested on lookers, as many of the others that tie on Saturday's are among the very best Colorado has to offer. 

Come down for a good time and I am sure some hecklers in the crowd.

Standing room only, from last years show, just kidding, paid folks from the street to look
interested.
