VINTAGE Bert Quimby FLY FISHIING SUPERVISOR MICKEY FINN STREAMER PERCY TACKLE CO
I WILL ACCEPT THE FIRST FAIR OFFER FOR THIS LOT of THREE(3) RARE VINTAGE FISHING FLIES- TWO BY BERT QUIMBY AND A THIRD(damaged) FLY by the Percy Tackle Company. According to Chris Del Plato. Bert Quimby had his finger on the pulse of northeastern streamer development and influenced it to a degree that few today may realize. Bert Quimby worked as a guide. Camp manager and newspaper reporter, a vocation shared by some fellow streamer notables such as Gene Letourneau. It was while working as a reporter that Quimby first met Ai Wellington Ballou- generally acknowledged as the father of the marabou streamer. Why exactly Bert was at the mouth of the Songo River on Sebago Lake is unclear, but this meeting may have had a profound impact on not only Quimby's life, but also Maine streamer history in general. For Ballou not only went on to coach ... moreBert Quimby on the finer points of fishing, but more importantly, also gave him his indoctrination into the craft of fly tying. A rather fortunate set of circumstances for other Maine anglers to come, both prominent and otherwise, as well as for us today. From South Windham. Maine, where he resided, Bert Quimby would not only generate his own streamer designs, but would also have a hand in many other soon-to-be-well-known patterns. As for his own flies, he is perhaps best known for the Green Ghost and Lady Ghost. The Green Ghost is thought to have evolved from a melding of Carrie Stevens' Gray Ghost and the interest in green-winged streamers of the day, attributed to the popularity of the Dr. Sanborn's Nine-Three. Both the Green and Lady Ghosts were chiefly known and used as trolling flies during that time. It has been said that in Maine during the 1940's and 1950's, the Lady Ghost was considered by many to be an indispensable pattern. An original Silver Ghost by Bert QuimbyQuimby also cast forth some other intriguing streamer'apparitions' his Galloping Ghost. Which sports a wing of Bali duck, and a Silver Ghost(shown in the accompanying photo) which is a
