Synopsis of Class
|
With as much warmwater fly fishing here in the Mid-West many
people love to throw deer hair poppers through out the
summer for bass and panfish. Among fly tiers, spinning deer hair is one of
the most requested techniques we get asked to teach. It
isn't that working with deer hair is that difficult but
rather not as intuitive as other tying techniques.
What most people do not know is that you can easily make
great looking hair bugs with other techniques than just
'spinning' the hair.
Our Spinning Deer Hair class is designed to help people
learn how to work with deer hair. Not just spinning it
but other techniques as well. Since this class is
designed more for working with one particular material and
techniques for using said material we will actually only be
tying one fly for this class. We will spend the first
half of the class learning the various techniques for
working with deer hair and then the later half actually
making the Tap's Bug using whichever technique the tiers
choose. Along with how to just get the hair on the
hook students will be learning how to trim their creation as
well as other finishing touches.
