Step 4 - Now the fly lines are ready to be merged.

Step 5 - Sew the core from each fly line into the center of the coating of the other fly line.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
