Last year, master craftsman Gene Dumper took several of his hand-tied flies, encased them in Clear Cure Goo, and created this special toilet seat in his Portland, Maine, workshop.
After months of in-house testing, Dumper sent his prototype to America’s leading multichannel merchant, L.L.Pinto, resulting in a contract for a dozen custom seats.
“Flyfishing is a tradition with deep roots in Maine, and so is taking a quality shit,” said Pinto spokesperson, Tammy Squalding. “Statistics also tell us flyfishers spend four years of their lives on toilets—reading our catalogs—so we’re reasonably confident we can unload all twelve.”
