    Fly Fishing Kilt Pin on Stewart of Appin

    I received my pdcorlis http://www.pbase.com/pdcorlis/flypin pin on Saturday and my new Stewart of Appin tank today. I had been waiting for a kilt to show it on. I'll be wearing these to the Tucson games in November. I hope the photo does it justice. O'Neille

    A very nice pin.
    They are very unique.
    I love the Strathspey on my xmarks tartan.

    Are these pins heavy enough to perform the function? They look light weight, and I always pick my kilt pins for a little weight?

    Yep, they are a standard kilt pin. Mine weighs just under a half an ounce.

    Looks great. But the real question is if you are an angler in a pinch and the fish are biting, can you use them with your fly rod and reel?

    Cheers
