If you don't know this about me, I am currently studying for the Michigan Bar Exam (February 25th and 26th) and I really needed some stoke to keep my sails full. That stoke came in the form of some FlyFishing Film Tour Tix (F3T). Two days after the bar exam I will be sitting in the Michigan Theater with a clear head and the excitement of a kid on Christmas. Go check out the trailers and head over the Schultz Outfitters in Ypsilanti to get some tickets; it is going to be a good time.
Anyhow, the boxes are getting filled with patterns that seem sort of odd to me: big meaty streamers. It is not how I normally flyfish, but I am told that it is one of the more productive approaches to take with warm water fish in southeast Michigan. We will see.
Check them out.

I have tied one fly in my life at a Scout expo thing, and never fly fished. But I can see you are hooked. :-P Best of luck on your exam.
I have always loved fly tying. There is just something that gives you a greater connection to the act of fishing when you created and tied the fly that lands a fish.
It is much better than just buying them and fishing them. You might as well use lures at that point.
