        <![CDATA[ A couple of decades ago (1989), way back when I was first starting off in this marvelous obsession, I took a flyer and while visiting my ex-wife&#39;s family
in New York, went unannounced to the Dette&#39;s house, knocked on the door and met him and asked him to show me how to tie a fly...which he so graciously
did...I consequently ordered and bought as many individual flies as a struggling college student could afford from him, which was the start of my pattern box
where I keep flies that I... ]]>

			<description><![CDATA[ I don&#39;t want to say that I am in any way expert in the Dette&#39;s or the Catskill&#39;s methods and patterns but all of the Cahills I bought from them
were of that nature and where I got started using them...I agree that parachutes are very useful and use them almost exclusively for my dry fly fishing and
personal tieing of dries...dj

			<description><![CDATA[ I very interested in the group of parachute flies that are pictured. The Light Cahill has a wood duck post. Is this the norm on Catskill style parachute flies,
is to use the original pattern for the wings the same as the dry fly pattern? Do only a couple do this? I like using Light Cahill patterns in east TN for
sulpher patterns. I have Mike Valla&#39;s book but I did not see anything written concerning this. Thanks in advance, Barry.

<br>
The space behind the hook eye was for the leader Turle knot, a common knot used back in the era of the early tiers. I get into the Turle knot space in the
book. Rube Cross and other early tyers like the Dettes, Darbees, Steenrod, Mahlon Davidson, etc. sport the traditional turle knot space, and you&#39;ll see the
space, too, in my dry flies.
<br>
<br>
The space was a common knot for dry flies 100 years ago, and Theodore Gordon even admitted the fact in his writings.... ]]></description>

I guess that&#39;s just style.

			<description><![CDATA[ The last few comments illustrate the Forum&#39;s dilemma regarding references to eBay. A seller who receives lower bids than he anticipated may claim that
Forum participants colluded to drive down the final price. Similar claims led to the termination of a dedicated eBay board, and the moderators&#39; request
that eBay not be discussed. It would be helpful if we just wish our friends well when they are sellers looking for a big payday, and wish our friends well when
they are buyers looking... ]]></description>

  $80. Frankly, I was suprised it went this low, as I heard about a Flick original selling for over $200. recently.
