Fly tying prodigy

At our November meeting, Catch mentioned having met a young fly tier on his recent trips to Mountain Home, Arkansas (at the IFFF Southern Fly Fishing Fair) and Townsend, Tennessee (at the Fly Tiers Weekend).  His name is Tradd Little.  He's mastered everything from dry flies to deer hair to salmon flies to realistic patterns.  And the most amazing part - Tradd is only 12 years old!

Here's a link to his website - traddsflies.blogspot.com.  It shows all of the flies that Tradd ties, and there's even step-by-step instructions for some of his favorites.
