I have a dream

agree that similar looking flies have a reason to live together, too.

Set-up for holding many many flies...?
Does anyone know if - and where - it's possible to buy something that
would hold and organize a great many flies? I'm thinking something
like the racks of tiny bins you see in fly shops. Thanks!

I went for the Battenkill bar stock (of course, the most expensive -

Also meant to ask: any opinions on either the G. Loomis Venture ($100,
with $60 spools) or the Orvis Battenkill Disk Drag ($85, but the
spools are only $35, which is nice)?

Best reel under $100? Best reel under $50?
I've had an Orvis CFO III for some time now, and while it's a nice
reel, I just can't afford to buy the requisite number of $115 spools
to match the different fly lines I use. And, at the same time,...
