Calcasieu Pig Boat

I am repairing a rod that I built for my brother and would like to give him some of these flies when he picks up the rod. Does anyone know where a person can buy the Calcsieu Pig Boat..? His birthday is the 10th of Feb, so I am in a bit of a rush.

Thanks
Tom Church

A fellow named Tom Nixon created this fly for fishing on the Calcasieu River in Alabama. Might do a search for fly shops in Alabama. Nixon used to visit the White River (Arkansas Ozarks) often to visit his brother. So, you might try Blue Ribbon Flys in Mountain Home, Arkansas. Tom Nixon is (was) up in years the last time I saw him, so...?????

Go to www.laflyfish.com and pose your question in the forums section. Tom, I believe, was from Louisiana, and he tied many flys with the main purpose of catching fish...he was not totally a purist.
