Terry Beeson Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I was in Wally World the other night and happened down the "bargain" aisle to see if there was anything on clearance that might be used in my fly tying or fly fishing "stuff"... Low and behold, there on the eye-level shelf was a seat/shoulder belt cover made to velcro over your seat belt strap and releive some of that discomfort the belt puts on your shoulder. When I first saw it, I thought it was a fly patch, since it was made from faux lambs wool material. Well, for a couple of bucks, I thought why not? You can put this on your wading belt, wader strap, or anywhere else you might think to put a fly patch. I put a few flies on it and it works as well as any fly patch. As much as I change flies at times and as much as I hate opening fly boxes in the middle of the stream, I'm sure I'll use this "handy dandy" device a lot....

Terry Beeson Posted October 12, 2006 Author Posted October 12, 2006 Yeah, I've seen some hats like that. Some of 'em I swear pick up NASA satellite transmissions...
