Well in my younger college days, when quality decision making left some to be desired we had the 3rd beer box of flies.
, A few buddies and I would sit around the kitchen table on Fridays tying flies and drinking beer preparing for the Saturday outing. The best flies came off the vise after the 3rd beer. Disheveled and ragged, "creative", and in reality poorly tied. They were however always the best fish catchers.
*chuckle*
Carl, as I do not drink beer, I trained myself to tie the first fly as if it was my third.
That is my story, and sticking with it
Cheers,
Hans W
