Chuck,

what did you do wrt light sources ?

I still have a collection of midges that need to have their photos taken
for public display.


how does one reconcile the loss of a fly with the work put into making it?
i've not tried to tie any, but i imagine it is a hell of a lot of tedious,
intricate work. i think i would be sick if i lost one to a tree, or a poor
job of tying it onto my tippet, etc.....


There is nothing more satisfying than catching fish on your own hand-tied (as
opposed to . . . ) flies. Especially if it's a pattern of your own design.
Losing flies is part of the game, so you grieve accordingly and move on.

they're gorgeous....


Chuck's are, in any case. ;-)
