I haven't got the right names attached to these fly photos yet,
and I only have about 3/4 of the flies photographed so far.
But this is already well-worth looking at--Flies actually
tied by Polly Rosborough--it's no wonder he's become a legendary
figu

Sorry about the broken link. I made some server changes, which
buggered something,
and I won't be able to fix it until later.
In the mean time, Tim J. did figure it out..........use:

Nice stuff, from a Master, Sandy......!!!
You can tell that Polly knew "his" local bugs, and those
are some of the best samples of his flies that I have seen
together. Wow!

sandy - i'm neither a capable tyer nor a versed flyfisherman. still,
though i know others appreciate (more than i) the art of what you have
done and what you are doing in documenting and illustrating a unique
history, here's my honest thanks for your effort and your brilliance at
it. i hope one day you are acknowledged in a manner worthy of your fine
work. i've enjoyed it and learned. i'm not sure you could hope to impart
more to others than joy and knowledge, especially when you'll probably
never meet most of us who have been affected. anyway...thanks.

Thank you Jeff. That means a lot. My efforts might best be described
as some sort of compulsive addiction. The number of hours I've put
into learning how to shoot good closeup photos and also how to
generate web pages from (programming) code, combined with the income I
receive
from Google ads........adds up to something like two cents an hour.
No...that's wrong, it's less than that.

Comments like yours make it worth while.
