Biography & Thoughts
I´m 33 years old and started fishing , when i was 3 years old. This year i started fly tying and casting. Fly tying for me is a hobby within a hobby and a western way of meditation. I do quite a range of styles thanks to a few good books on tying and a colleague of mine, who helped me through the first steps. I liked the style of the discussion i read on this board and want to share my thoughts here and maybe get a little bit of help or even join a competition.
