Selene sat next to me and I instantly knew she was an amazing tier. She became famous for tying Carry Steven’s flies with out a vise so I was excited when I received a email saying she had opened a fly shop in Gardiner. Stac and I finally had time this past weekend to go check it out. </

If you want to find fault in my writing, I\'m sure you can. I do have 45 years of pond fishing experience in the state of Maine, plus the d

Muskie In the Rear View: Changing Focus
