Winter Project Finished- Finally

Wow, a crazy month and half project has finally wrapped up, this was a major under taking to gather up every flybox, dismantle, resort, discard and re-organize almost 20 new boxes , this does not include the streamer boxes. They are now organized by type, size and waters.
 Last batch of special twists we should need for the season, other than crazy new patterns and new rivers we plan on visiting.
 Sample of the stonefly box, however this is a very big sector and I have two selections.
Stonefly Dries- again two / three different boxes because of varying different degrees of flies.
So glad this task if finished.

Thinkin' Back

Man, how time flies, it was only a year ago when we were packing and getting ready to head out on our first steelhead adventure, now a year later, hooked like most, we are figuring out how to book a few more trips this year. Unfortunately due to family obligations this February, we will not be able to join the crew on the OP for a repeat performance. Sure would like to be back , beautiful waters and great people.  Here's to a great 2015 of fishing to everyone out in blognation.
