We are in the process or redesigning our website, so be patient and check back often, let us know what you think.   We are starting a new contest on the ARF website.  I will be posting pictures of fishing spots.  Email Don your guess on where the fishing spot is and you will be entered into a drawing for a prize from the shop.  Here is the first fishing hole.

A couple of dozen of ARF bonefish flies headed south for a couple of weeks of R & R.  As you can see some unsuspecting bones found them as beautiful as we did.  Wes, thanks for the great photo.
