Wow, now that's my kind of OCD. This is a great batch. Nicely done.

That's like the Swiss Army Knife of fly boxes. Looks like there is a tool for every (hatch) situation. Wonderful set of flies Carl.

Thanks everyone. It's hard to appreciate the selection that is in "the Addict" or any other book for that matter until you can tie them up and see them side by side. The selection Nemes put together as his top 20 really is a nice selection of patterns, without a doubt a lot thought and experience put into it.

Carl,
I slipped on down and found this posting. These are outstanding Carl! As Mr. Rogers used to sing to the kids, "Won't you be....My Neighbor!" Have a blast in Lewiston!
