The Tan Avenger is born. I came across some new materials today and I liked the tan color of it tbh. I thought it was like cactus chenille but it wasn’t. Nonetheless I had to try it when I came home and it ended up as this little fly, which is a tan version of my all time favorite fly - the pink avenger. Looking forward to try it.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.

The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
