So I finally got my T-shirt design put together and printed. I'm stoked! I worked hard on this for several months. My buddy Jeff is the artist-He drew the hand and the fish seperately. I did the overall design, the fonts, merged the hand and the fish and digitally altered the picture as I saw fit. I also added the fly & tippet.
Background story:
For those who don't know, Jeff is a BIG musky fiserman. We are always taking stabs at each other about each one's fishing habits. I bust him on how quickly musky run out of steam, and he makes a silent hand gesture back at me (like what you see in many small stream trout pics) This hand gesture, which was a total slam on small wild trout, became my logo and I am proud of it!
I probably don't have to spell out the meaning of the shirt's phrase to this group, but for the record, "Die For The Fly" refers to the purist mentality of only flyfishing once hooked on this great sport!
A flyfisher will die fly fishing. Note- I am NOT advocating killing trout whilst you are a skeleton!
This is pretty cool to finally see the end product though. I will be selling these up at the FFF Fair in Sept at my booth. I will try to get them up on my website soon, but I have no shopping cart feature yet.
Enjoy!
