I don't see why making it a sticky would be a problem, I like the idea. To take it another step further, this site "should" in my opinion have its own fly tying page made up of contributions that the members submit along with pictures and tutorials. Perhaps a link on the side bar for fly tying then a step down to beginners, basics, popular ties for PA, advanced techniques, etc. Each page with the ability to branch out as expansive as the contributions allow.
I think that the use on this site is far too heavily weighted on the message board pages.
I hope Dave can see his way to allowing us to build an archive of articles and tutorials on fly tying. Then instead of linking to other sites for this information we can point to another page on this site. Just a thought.
Actually, that is what the "tips & tricks" forum was added for. The topics were to be brainstorming sessions to develop concise and practical tips for fly fishing but it kind of got off track. Years ago on the old site there was a page of tips submitted by site contributors. Some pretty neat stuff.
This could be a fun aspect of building this site into a greater resource than it already is.
Great idea Afish.
