Perfection!

[@jdswideworldofflyfishingan4759]

The strive for perfection is what makes Flytying so interesting and helps expand our brain power. The pursuit is one of the wonders of nature and its ability to rewire the brain. This is why it’s so wonderful for veterans.

I'm always curious what these guys do on the day to day. Are they biologists? Teachers? What does Cheech do or is he just a fly shop owner? Galloup is an easy one. What about Flagler?! I think most are authors or writers and contributors to publications.
