FOUND - fly boxes at Rocky Ford

[Buzzy]

January 13th - fly boxes found on the upper bridge. PM me if you know who may have lost them or if you're the guy/gal that doesn't put your name and phone number in the boxes. Reach out, describe them, and I'll get them to you.

 

[mcswny]

I appreciate your commitment to getting these home.

I know, right? I've been out twice this year (only two times): skunked the first time and two to the net the second time, join me Monday. Dress warm.

TTT - last gasp for a month or two or three.

I figured that by now you would be using them.

Not my style, Jim. They belong to someone else. Again, hindsight is 20:20; I should have left them on the bridge.

You’ve been doing good on this @Buzzy
As I recall you’ve been trying to unload them for a month

TTT Come on, someone must have complained to someone who knows someone who frequents PNWFF. I can't give them up as "free" as they belong to someone.

Try sticking a Note in a few places around where you found them at. Somebody will see them and get the word out. This is just one way to get the word out.

I'll do just that, Jim. I did post a "found" poster on the vault toilet close the the bridge where I found the boxes, I guess people misinterpreted the message.

I lost my then only fly box at RF 22plus years ago. Never got it back, but never lost one since. Cheap lesson

@Buzzy, your commission for the amount of time trying to locate the owner of the boxes exceeds the value of the boxes and flies... Just sayin'

 

[Old Man]

You could always donate them to a worthy cause. Like the one Jerry D. used to cook for and guide. Wounded warriors??

Can't do it. Ain't mine.

Project Healing Waters - I might do this in a year or so if the boxes haven't been claimed.

I just posted messages again on the Eastern WA Flyfishing and WA Flyfishing Facebook pages.

Looks like we are all helping you, Buzzy. The person who lost them must not care about them.

When fishing Pilchuck creek, I found some flies in a make shift box. But this was before the internet. I gave them away.

Jim -
I think whoever left the boxes there didn't realize it until they got home, wherever home is.

I went back out today and taped two notes up (Rite in the Rain paper):

@Buzzy maybe they didn’t catch any fish. So, they left the box there on purpose as the flies were clearly all duds!

Most of the flies aren't something I would use midday, but some of the buggers would be fun after dark.....
