Dette Fly - Conover Gary Siemer Pawls and gear teeth stillFor sale here is an authentic Catskill dry fly by the Dettes the Conover. This fly comes from the collection of a Sullivan County sportsman who, as a kid, grew up around many of the legendary Catskill fly tiers. His uncle was also close friends with many of them. Most of his Dette flies were acquired from another private collector who over the years had regularly acquired his flies directly from the Dettes. Further provenance details will be provided
