jdmidwest Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 A great fly tyer has gone on to better fishing. Uncle Dickie passed away on Feb. 18. Author of many great fly tying masterpieces, his style and his patterns will live on for a long time. I never met the man, I have only known him thru many books and videos thru the years. I always frequented his website in past years, he posted several patterns and good ideas. He was an icon in the tying industry. Dick Talleur Website.

jdmidwest Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 I noticed that too a few months back. I guess the family closed the site.
