		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Many anglers tout the effectiveness of using red hooks in their fly patterns.  While there appears to be some science behind it, I&#8217;m not a red hook fanatic; nor am I a foe.  I don&#8217;t know if or why red hooks add some attractor qualities to flies or not.  I&#8217;ve caught fish on them [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Even the most organized fly tying desks can have cluttered backgrounds that can be distracting when you&#8217;re trying to put the finishing touches on that perfect fly.  It can not only adversely affect the quality of the fly you&#8217;re tying, but also cause eye strain.  Here&#8217;s a simple, low-cost solution I came up with [...]]]></description>
