Curious, do you fish with all these flies you tie, display them around your house as artwork, or just collect them in boxes?

I live in SW Va......so my Steelhead fishing is definitely limited to a couple of weeks a year. I travel for work a lot out the the PNW and have been to the Skagit, Deschutes, Klickitat and Hoh with these flies recently. The only grab was a jack steelhead. I might have lost one or two flies max.
I hope to hit my "home" waters on the Salmon River in NY this coming April and November. Where I know there will be a fish landed or two.
I just started tying Spey style flies a year or so ago. When I set out to learn something...I'm reading and studying all that I can get my hands on. They have a rich history, are a lot of fun to tie and are beautiful. They definitely put ones skills to the test for sure.
So I guess I'm just filling up my boxes, practicing my techniques and proportions, and trying to add some life to the sub-forum.
Prior to that it was egg sucking leeches and stoneflies.
