    I'm in the dog house

    I just got back from the fly store and spent about $100 on fly tying materials. Wife is... not too happy with me.

    Doh!

    point out the savings, you just bought $1000 worth of flies.

    any woman understands spending $100 to save $900.

    This is the way to go, my friend.

    You have to understand, I told her I was going to buy a whip finisher, and that was it.

    Similar story...dropped by orvis last night for some tippet and a half dozen crab patterns and the bastards are doing buy a dozen get a dozen free. How can I pass that up!? Not only that, but when you need a couple of $5-$6 flies and the free ones have to be equal or lesser value, it seems stupid to pay for the $5 flies and get a bunch of $2 ones for free, so now I have nearly 2 dozen saltwater flies that I will probably use 4 days this year. No wife though--the only thing mad at me is the bank account
