Thanks for the kind words Dave. My strings ain't beautiful,(I think everyone else can make em better and prettier), but they work.
I thought if the late great Jerry Pierce could build bows and give them away, I could surely give strings away to someone who may need one. In the 15 or 20 years since I learned the flemish twist, I have never taken money for a string. Same with my flies. You gotta tie alot just to get better, certainly more flies than my limited angling skills allow to get eaten . So I'll give away a handful now and again. They are rather ugly but will catch a snook, the only fish that matters
As far as flyfishing, for snook of course, in the dark, Don and Lori Thomas are WAY better at it than I am
