Let’s get caught up

I haven’t been able to write a post in a couple weeks now and thought it was about time. If you follow me on instagram, the these pictures may look familiar to you.

Spring is here and the flowers are blooming!

The weekend before last was cold and rainy so we had to come up with some indoor activities like fly tying class.

Some of the finished flies with a sweet looking sticker.

Drowning my sorrows because I can’t go fly fishing.

Printed a special edition too cool for school shirt for a graduation present.

And finally we hit the local pond to catch us some bluegills. No fish, but it was nice to get out and start teaching the little guy how to use a fly rod!

Any Luck Screen Video

I thought it would be kind of fun to show the process of burning a screen for the t-shirts I print. It would have been pretty boring to watch in real-time, so I sped up the video to show the entire burn process in about 2 minutes.

I Love Trout

Besides my lovely wife, I love trout. I love how slimy they are. I love how spooky they can be or how tolerant they can be. I love how they sometimes eat on the top of the water and sometimes they eat on the bottom. I love to watch them jump out of the water. I love to watch them swim up to my fly and then swim away. I love big 20 inch rainbows. I love little 6 inch brookies. But most of all like the feeling of them tugging on my line. To celebrate my love of trout on this day of love I am sharing a coupon code, ILOVETROUT, for 14% off shirts.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Super Snowy Weekend Sale

Normally on Fridays the work day goes by extremely fast because I am super excited to go fly fishing. In the spring to the fall I try to go every weekend and hopefully I will be able to go more in the Winter if it’s nice. I also get pretty excited on Fridays during football season because I love watching the NFL on Sunday. Today is a little bit different. I am still excited for the weekend but today the weekend started early when this morning I found out that the office was closed due to the intense snowfall we are experiencing. SNOWDAY!! I am not going to be able to go fishing this weekend but I do have the biggest game of the football season to watch. And in honor of this super weekend I am having, all my t-shirts will be 20% off when you use the code SUPERWEEKEND.

Shirt and Stickers from The Fiberglass Manifesto

I got a nice little surprise in the mail today, a sweet t-shirt and gang of stickers from The Fiberglass Manifesto. I love the “T.F.M. Retro Fly” design on the shirt. The white logo really pops on the black shirt. You can get this shirt or others in the T.F.M Apparel section of the web site.

The Making of a T-Shirt

It’s actually just the printing of a t-shirt. I thought it would be cool to show you how these fly shirts are printed. Some day I will show you how the entire process works from the beginning when the design is crafted. But for now here are just a few pictures of the ink on the screen and after the ink as been applied. Every shirt I ship out includes a fly that I tied myself and a cool little button. So I thought I would show that too!
