Most excellent read, Erik. Thank you!

I've always enjoyed your blog and flies, especially your originals.

Your Lord Byron has produced quite well for me.

Thanks again,

Geez. You fished the Lord Byron? That is my weird JuJu fly. I tied it on one dusk on the Clearwater and done caught a king salmon on it by accident. It was an hour long battle. I just marveled that a king salmon 500 miles from the sea would take a sixe 3 Lord Byron... on a floating line to boot! Then I thought of good old George Gordon, the Lord Byron, and remembered the saying. "He is mad, bad, and dangerous to know..". Perhaps that little fly picked up some of the karma?
Happy holidays!

That was a great article Eric, I really enjoyed it.

I have heard rumors from a reliable source that you have a special talent for finding chinook on that river?

How could I not tie or fish her? She "swims" in beauty, and is all that’s best of dark and bright!!

Happy Holidays to you, Mr. Helm,
