I've done several of these with the map that I massaged to look "old." Added old timey featherwing salmon flies. Incidentally, some fine tyers from around the Maritimes and New England tied a bunch of featherwings (30), which I made into three of these same shadowboxes. Happy to report that the three of them raised $2,100 for the Miramichi Salmon Assoc. (MSA) and the Atlantic Salmon Museum! The shadow box here is currently up for auction to benefit the MSA here: https://www.bradburnsfishing.com/auction/ (Brad graciously hosts MSA-US auctions on his website).

#4Gorgeous work... even more impressive than the last.
Just think of the thrill this treasure will bring someone in the near future.

You either like cane fly rods - or you don't.
