Intermediate Fly Tying Class

Date/Time: November 3rd, 2007, 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Maximum Size: 6
Instructor: Ian Anderson

Synopsis of Class
One of the great things about tying your own flies is having the ability to try new materials on existing patterns.  Over the years many existing patterns have been modified to include glass beads.  The beads add a certain sheen and luster to the fly that can make it more productive.  Besides the fact they catch fish they can be a lot of fun to tie. 

This class is one of those that is designed to just try something new and add a little more experience to your fly tying.  All of the patterns you will tie do indeed catch fish but they will give you lots of ideas about how you might improve on other patterns you already know.

The flies you will tie are,


Fox's Double Head Flig, Black
