May's artist/artisan is Lee resident, David Smith. David learned to tie flies about seventeen years ago and found that tying his own flies added greatly to his enjoyment of fly fishing. Flies are designed either to attract fish by their bright color and movement, or to imitate the insects or smaller fish upon which the bigger fish feed. The patterns on display at the library are all ones that he uses in New Hampshire rivers, ponds, or coastal waters. David claims no special expertise in tying, but aren't these small objects, designed to fool fish, pretty in
their own right?
