This fly patch speaks volumes. (STEVE ANGERS PHOTO)

At the end of each trout season, before putting away my fly vest, I take the opportunity to do a cleaning and an organizing. This is not a drawn out process. Sorting leaders and tippet. Checking floatant bottles. Cleaning out fly boxes.

Fly vests have morphed over the years. They became packs. They became slings. They became combinations of all three. But there is one constant of whichever one you choose to hold your gear: the fly patch.
