Re: The Man That Changed My Life Forever
My start in fishing was 1950 aged five.

FRIENDLY ADVICE PLEASE
A born Washingtonian I plan to fly back over at the end of April to visit my brother in Grand Coulee and will naturally want to wet a fly in Banks Lake. Does anyone know which flies I should tie which would be effective for most species in that Lake? THANK YOU
