    Description

    Large asst. of flies in 3 boxes.
    Condition is as is as I can't say what is or is not missing, in good or bad shape or blanks to add your own feathers etc..
    For e.g. the true flies appear to be mostly "blanks" as I would call them. Something that needs to be finished that is not completed.
    The tru flies say Hank Roberts on the box, and that they are wet flies.
    There is also a box inscribed Rainbow fly Co. out of Laramie Wyoming. Once again, I am not sure if these are worn or just in need of work to complete their appearance.
    Many guys collect the boxes, so they are obviously included for that reason.
    The tru fly box has app. 12 flies and I guess one diff. one flew over from the other boxes.
    The rainbow box has about 10
    The plastic box looks to have about 30.
    I have fished years ago but have not as of late and have never fly fished, so my knowledge is limited on fly fishing and why I am selling these as as is.
    I combine shipping very fairly as long as all items can ship safely.
    A Note on our current conditions
    All of my items I own have  been around for a month or moref or years, so, I DO know where they have been before being sold.
    My wife and I are in virtual seclusion and are both 70 yrs. young and go out only when necessary. My job is in agriculture/lawncare and am SELF EMPLOYED and work alone and am the only one who handles the equipment.
    I do all the shopping and go ONCE every two weeks at 7 am to avoid crowds, wear a mask and glasses that wrap around my face to protect my eyes when shopping and damage at work.
    I keep 15 -20 gal's. of gas to reduce my contact with the rest of the human race.
    I am cleaning everything possible prior to packaging so the product you recieve is as clean as possible upon delivery to you. Having said that the P.O. does have to HANDLE all packages at some point, especiall during physical dropoff and I HIGHLY recommend letting package sit out in a safe area for 24-36 hrs. as this is how long THEY say it can survive on paper or cardboard.
    I know we are living during times much harder than normal. My wife dislikes people and is happy with the seclusion, 2 doctors visits in 8 weeks and home w/out visitors otherwise. I, on the otherhand love people and enjoy one on one communication, but am happy to spend my time doing ebay, getting excercise thru the work I do and working in and around the house, and most of all having my wife as my greatest companion and friend.
    This is the reason I have increased my shipping time from 2 to 10 days
    Any ?'s please ask and I will help if can.
    Please note, due to the current issues, my new shipping schedule will be FRIDAYS ONLY
    and item MUST be purchased by WEDS. 11.59 P.M. to be shipped by following Friday.
    Purchases made on thurs.or FRI. will be shipped the following fri., I.E. 9 days later.
    I do this, once again, to limit my exposure and to respect postal workers.
    I am sure we are going to be in this position for a while, so if this does not meet your standards, I understand, but this IS my new shipping system until we all can once again hopefully get back to the lives we DID  NOT know we WERE so happy with.
    Thank-you again and stay SAFE!!!!!!!
