I've been out of touch with fishing for over 10 years now.
I used to get all my fly tying junk from an outfit called
Herter's. If memory serves, they were located somewhere in
the northern mid-west; Minnesotta maybe?

Is Herter's still around? Anyone have an address or phone
number? Their catlogs were absolutely priceless just for
the reading alone!

Possibly you've been out of touch a touch longer than that! Herters
floundered a bit and then closed for good in the mid-to late 70's. I
still have a lot of Herter's gear in use.

David - A name from the distant past -- I too used to get a lot of stuff
from Herters and miss their catalogs. The've been out of bussiness for a
number of years now. Cabelas is the closest thing now.

Aloha - bob \ooo_
