Mel...
Please elaborate. Why do you consider Syd Glasso to be the best? What
are his specialties? Why is he a cut above?

There have been some great fly tiers over the years and there are
some great ones today.To give someone the title of greatest fly
tier is probably impossible. One of the best I ever met was Syd
Glasso.

Subject: [VFB] Who is (or was) the greatest fly tier ever???
Folks: I saw where Lord Byron Nelson passed away today (yesterday
now) at 94 (one site I read said he was 95 so I'm not sure). Many
would consider him the all time greatest golfers with 18 wins with
11 consecutive wins in 1945..That got me to thinking.. We have some
great and long time tiers here. Who would ya'll say is the best
ever fly tier??? I know I'll probably get as many answers as I get
replies LOL, but I just wondered if there is somebody that stands
out in many minds??? Or how bout , who was/is the greatest fly
