i've never heard of any rule bout not sellin' your flies at the
Sowbug......i've sold flies there.
we've done the FFF Internationl every year since 2002 and that's one place they
don't want you to sell your flies..........but most of us who have a buyer for
something at that show.........just do business up in our room of the
hotel........or out in the parking lot.........or in the hotel
lobby..............anywhere but on the showroom floor..........
we've also done the Southern, Southeast, Great Lakes, Florida, Gulf Coast,
Oregon, Washington, and Notheast, FFF Council Conclaves and have never been
asked not to sell............at the East Idaho Fly Tying/Fly Fishing Expo they
just give you a tax form to fill out, and you have to charge tax and give it to
the organizers of the show if you sell..........and they get it to the
state........i guess.
it's also no problem at all the east coast shows.............you gotta be able
to sell, in order to try and defray some of your expenses...........man it cost
a small fortune to do shows all over hell and back...........one reason we
started cuttin' back this year.....sorta, lol.......and will continue to do so
as time goes by.........more and more each year...........cept for next
year...........kinna, lmao...........

What really cheesed me off was when I found Terry and Roxanne Wilson selling
flies from their demo station at Sowbug. I was under the impression that was
not kosher.

Jeff, you've never been to the shows in the east.........there, you might have
a half dozen of the BEST Atlantic Salmon fly tyers on the planet, all seated in
a row or real close together........and trust me.......even though they be
takin' all dang day to do one fly.............there's a dang good reason they
don't just give 'em away. Once those puppies go in a frame, they can sell them
for upwards of $400 each.....and they DO. Next time you come over.....you'll
have to make some time to come UPstairs. i'll show you a bunch of 'em.

I thought everybody gave them all away for somebody that would sit and learn
the pattern. I found out that was not the case. I suppose folks have their
reasons. It's not like it's a piece of furniture or something really valuable.

Could not pass up the low water this morning. Went fishing and got skunked..
That is the first time getting skunked in years.
I always give away all the files I tie at the tie-in's and at any shows I do.
