Congrats! I too have been working on perfecting my flies, and I know exactly what you mean. It feels so good to catch that first fish on a fly that you tied... Keep at it! banana thumb

So you are saying that you built one weight fly rods from ice fishing blanks? How cool is that! I'm a big light tackle fanatic for small, skinny water so have a one and an ought weight.
