Hello. I hope this is the correct email to use to share photos.

I have been using your flies for almost a year now since a friend recommended you on a trip to Oak Orchard, NY last November. I just returned from Elk Creek in PA fishing steelies on the fly with my brothers Gabriel and Brian (in-law). I have only been fly fishing for a couple years now and feel I am finally starting to get the hang of it (still plenty to learn). This trip to the Elk was my most successful fly fishing trip to date and I truly believe that I owe a lot of that success to Big Y Fly! Great quality, beautiful and the best prices around! I have just placed my 4th order in 2 months to stock up on what I lost and to gear up for the Oak in a few weeks.

I caught steel on little brown trout, clouser swimming nymph hot butt and the steelhead egg sucking leech. I landed 3 the first day and 11 the second day, half of which were caught on the leech when I made the switch on a gut feeling.

I am attaching photos for your website. I tried to get some good close ups of your flies in their mouth. Feel free to use any of these photos and any endorsements you like.

Thank you so much!

Mickey
