Fall Tying has Begun

The fall tying season has begun. It all started with the annual phone call from the local solicitor from my favorite TU Chapter asking for my normal donation to the verbal auction. I am a sucker for TU, as the organization does so many great things for rivers, streams, fish, kids, well, just so many things I believe in. It is the least I can do, to tie 50-100 dozen flies a year for 3-4 different chapters and auctions.

My first selections will be a box of tailwater midge /nymph selection , paired with a second box of dry flies. Hell I will probably throw in one of my signature framed Photo's as well.

To see the donated selection come to the:

Fire Girl Photography

Fire Girl Photography: Dipping Water - A fire fighting helicopter comes in for more water on Hyalite Lake. Millie Fire, Gallatin National Forest, Montana, United States.


I have been following Jess all summer since she started working with the team at Headhunter on the Missouri. I am sure you have seen her fine work if you read any of the Blogs- especially ChiWulff , or some Montana fishing publications. Her work is brilliant. Jess has an eye for capturing great shots. When you have a chance check out her website, www.firegirlphotography.com , check out her portfolios on Missouri River Project and Fires. Brilliant
