This from a guy who can wax poetic about tradition and handtools in

My likes or dislikes about how you tie flies is not the issue. It's
about the tradition, the good Lord meant for trout flies to be tied

Not to mention that enormous pom-pom I've seen on your leader. :-)

Enjoy yourself this weekend, Wayne, and say hello to the place for me.
