I know links to other websites should not readily be posted but I wanted to point out a very special fly that has just become available through a reputable, online California Fly Fishing Dealer.
The fly is call Tanner's Revenge, which I created with the inspiration of a good friend's son, Tanner Hrobak. Tanner was diagnosed with brain cancer and over the past few years has undergone a great number of medical procedures, traveled great distances and met many other children afflicted with illness just like him. Throughout all their ordeals, these magificant children seem to exude hope, compassion and understanding for others and perhaps, most of all, a zest for life in the face of great struggles. The fly is representative of their hope and zest for life in overcoming obstacles and continuing to inspire others through their will and determination.
On a more subdued note, the fly contains great colors that will tempt bluefish, stripers or weakfish roaming around the coast. Farther south it will turn tarpon, snook and sea trout. Whether used as a teaser or as a fly, the selection of materials were prepared taking into account the color, flash and movement of our many coastal baitfish and I have no doubt that many hookups will result by tying on a Tanner's Revenge.
Lastly, but most importantly, The Fly Shop in California has agreed to send a portion of the proceeds from the sales of the Tanner's Revenge flies to the Children's Hosiptal as a donation to all those children in need. Please feel free to check them out and in these difficult economic times if you can order one I know some greatful children who would appreciate the gesture.
Thank you and best wishes in 2009 to all of you and your families.
Further inquiries can be addressed to me via private message.
