mic Posted September 15, 2022 Posted September 15, 2022 I'm 2-4 hours away from the nearest trout water. I also tie for fun and to decompress from stressful work. A make a lot more flies then I lose. Any ideas on what to do with the extra flies. I don't think mine are good enough to go into a store. They are good enough to catch fish though. Daryk Campbell Sr 1

fishinwrench Posted September 15, 2022 Posted September 15, 2022 I either give my extras and culls to someone who is just getting started flyfishing, or I take a razor blade and scrap them for hooks & beads. Daryk Campbell Sr, Ryan Miloshewski and nomolites 3
FishnDave Posted September 15, 2022 Posted September 15, 2022 Also, perhaps boy scout/girl scout-type groups with "fly fishing badges" could use some. Kid-centric organizations, like Big Brothers/Big Sisters? Daryk Campbell Sr 1
