I have probably 40 cigar boxes worth of "stuff", as well as a handbuilt "travel" tying kit that is stocked with his supplies as well. If anyone that knows saltwater and tying in general is willing to take a look and let me know what I should keep, sell, or toss, I'd appreciate it and will give you a few pieces here and there. I'm keeping the vices, and tools out of sentimental value, but I'd like to put them to good use.  |
There is a lot of material that you can use in saltwater fly tying. The hooks will probably be to small. You can always donate to the younger anglers on the site.
I'm also a saltwater fisherman, its very rare for me to be seen at a pond or a lake. I started tying flys in 1987, wooly worms and nymphs for fresh water.
I'll send you a PM with my contact info
