    I save every email I get from your site. I’m a disabled veteran and love fly tying. I’m in the process of opening an online store to supplement my VA income, and I’m doing a lot of house repairs. But as soon as I get a little stair time, I want to learn some of these patterns. Keep them coming. Thank you!
