The International Fly Tying Symposium is this weekend at the Doubletree Hotel in Somerset, New Jersey. My long-time, hunting, fishing, fly tying, The Streamer List friend Truman McMullan is attending with me. He’s a good and true friend. The last time he attended the Fly Tying Symposium was when it was once held in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. That was ages ago. We are looking forward to a good time. I am so glad to be back at this show, I missed the last two years for personal reasons.
Folks, if you can attend this show, you won’t be disappointed. There is a record-high number of participating fly tiers this year. If you make it, please stop by my table and say hello!
I am so sorry that I cannot attend this year. Please take lots of photos…especially if you find other members from the FlyTyer Forum. There will be quite a few there.
Wish I could be there to see these fly tiers in action, because there will be so much knowledge in one room. Hope to see lots of pictures.

I had my camera but I actually did not take even one photo. I was quite busy and instead of taking photos, I used it to show folks photos of the fly photos I took from the 1893 Orvis display at the American Museum of Fly Fishing in Manchester, VT, in October. These flies tie in with the announcement I’ll be making this week regarding the project of my first book.
