Wow, that's 36,000 flies a year! He tie them all himself? If so, at my
tying average speed of 2 minutes per fly, that translates into 2 X
36,000 = 72,000 minutes % 60 minutes / hr = 1,200 hours at the bench.
1,200 % 24 (hours in a day) = 50 days, if I tied 24 hours a day. Now,

I'm right-handed and I've always reeled right handed after changing the
rod from right hand to left I know that in the time it takes to change
the rod from right hand to left hand has cost me a fish or two, but try

Before you begin to angle make a trial, having the wind on your back, to see
at what length you can cast your fly, that the fly light first into the water,
and no longer, for if any of the line fall into the water before the fly, it is
better uncast than thrown .
