How about people that fly fish thought about throwing a few flies in also.

I fly fish, both traditional and Tenkara (Flies tied backwards).

It all sounds good to me. I typically make a call or two. Sounds like we have another call maker on the list this year. Maybe I'll try something a little different this year. Haven't figured out what yet.

Dave,
I've seen a pic or two of your calls, they look awesome!
I bet they sound great also.
I can't speak for anyone else but I sure would love to receive one for Christmas

I almost had a coyote to start on a quiver, but the person shot it opening morningof rifle deer season and the temp reached into the 60s. So it was green bellied by the time I could get over there to get it in the late evening. Those coyotes stink enough as is, and get a little green belly going on and it's terrible. But fur bearer season is open now, so it's time to harvest a raccoon or two and make up a quiver and jar of rendered coon tallow. I've decided on some changes after packing around my raccoon skin quiver for a couple years.

I've got this much finished on my gift, needs a sheath and then I'll throw in a few extras

Very nice bubby! I've always wondered how those handle were made. Is that a bunch of dyed wood laminated together? Patrick
