Now that Winter and Spring have gone, the open tie nights at Lake Monster Brewing hosted by Bob Mitchell's Fly Shop have come to a close. For those of us that don't ice fish or do any winter fishing, it's a great excuse to get out of the house, drink a beer, talk fishing, and shake off that little bit of cabin fever.

| My first open tie night back in February when I first moved to Minnesota. |
The last open tie night was back in April, so, I know this is a very late post, but I still wanted to share. These open tie nights, were super beneficial to me while being new up here. It allowed me to get out and make some friends, and have some fun at the same time.

I've tied a few flies, but mostly socialized at these gatherings. It was a great way to put some faces to quite a few people I have interacted with through social media.

| What a cool pair of scissors....can you see what it is?? |

| Good times had by all. |
The picture below is a funny one - I was told the moon was out, and it did look out, but something was a bit fishy about it. I didn't have my glasses and don't see very well at night for distance, so, I was almost fooled. Almost, Rhea.

| They were almost fooled, too. Almost. |
 |
| Fish. |
