Synopsis of Class
|
For the past eleven years we have been sending people down
south to Ascension Bay for six days of bonefish, permit and
snook fishing (with an occasional tarpon). These trips
run every week from the last week in January to the first
week of March. Like most things, there are always new
flies every year that are the best fly in the world.
However, there are also certain patterns that end up being
the "go to" pattern when the "best fly in the world" in not
working so good. This class in our Advanced tying
series is aimed at showing people how to tie these tried and
true patterns.
If you are lucky enough to be heading south this winter to
Mexico (or even Florida) to do some fishing the majority of
the fishing will be for bonefish and permit. So, this
class will focus on standard patterns that will work well
for these fish in and around Ascension Bay (as well as the
Bahamas and the Florida Keys). The following are the
flies you will tie.
