Synopsis of Class
|
One of the main attractions people have to fly fishing is
the excitement of catching fish on the surface of the water.
Whether you are dry fly fishing for trout or casting big
topwater flies for musky you just can not beat the thrill of
watching the fish come up to the surface and take your fly.
There is some
dry
fly fishing opportunities here in central Indiana but
mostly fishing flies on the surface means poppers for bass
and bluegill.
There are hundreds of foam popper patterns as well as ways
of tying them. In this class we will focus on three
different flies that help represent the style of foam poppers to
tie and fish as well as various complexities of creating
these flies. We will not actually be painting the
patterns that require paint dues to time limitations.
However, we will be using some Tuffleye to finish off one of
the fly heads and discussing steps for completing painted
poppers.
The flies you will tie in this class are,
|

Clouser Easy Popper

Kent's Stealth Bomber |

Rainy's Chartreuse Boobie Fly |
