Alley Kat Hat Co

When I was at the Dr (a fly fishing freak) , he complimented me on my Hat . I thanked him , then proceeded to tell him about Tim , Alley Kat Hats and that he makes Custom Fly Rods , also , or did . He seemed interested , next visit I'm planning on taking more info . GORGEOUS Hats and Photography ! Killer Rod , too ! Thanks @bolthead Kurt , and @Cane Rod Maker Tim !

You can certainly pass on a phone number for me. Let me know if you'd like me to PM you with mien. I appreciate the good words. Always a pleasure to have you weigh in. I can still make a fly rod; mastering a skill like that, the knowledge never goes away. I have everything needed. Thank you!!
 
I thought about giving him a Calendar , wondered if any Rods (Fly - Fishing , that is) might be in the photographs , too . Work on him at both weaknesses . Two birds , one stone .


Definitely a future project. I might make some fly fishing hats and perhaps replicate an old vest. Make a steamer box, make trout nets. Could be a awesome package.
 
Ok, so here is one that was made for a local client here in PA. This is a staple rabbit, color is pecan , needless to say the client was overjoyed when he saw it. Here's a few shots of it.

I really like what this hat can do. For lack of better words , the hat works in 3 positions. Returns to brim up position with out losing any shape.

I had a Lamiglass fly blank made into a custom summer steelhead rod. I make my own spinners; not very good with a fly rod as I always have to keep an eye on my line to see how it's doing or my cast will go wonkers and end up in the trees or onto an unsuspecting fisherman!
