Fishing Collectables

Here is something I found on the web while searching for Salmon fly patterns. Back in 1998 the Canadian post office, Canada Post issued a series of stamps featuring salmon flies. They were sold in packets of twelve stamps with two of each of the six patterns: the Coquihalla Orange a steelhead fly, the Cosseboom a great Atlantic salmon favourite, the Steelhead Bee, the Dark Montreal a brook trout pattern that is also good for fall salmon, the Lady Amherst an Atlantic salmon fly and the Coho Blue a West Coast salmon pattern. The designs featured the fly and the target fish. What a great collectable for those of you who still have any room left in the garage or basement. If you are anything like me your hunting and fishing gear is filling every nook and cranny.
