Synopsis of Class
|
Sure we all like to tie flies that we will throw to fish to
bring then into the net. Sometimes that is the most
satisfying part of fly tying. But there is another
side to fly tying. A more artistic and refined side.
Especially when it comes to tying realistic flies. In
recent years more and more tiers are enjoying spending hours
at the vise and using materials in all sorts of new ways to
make flies that look just like real insects. One tier,
Graham Owen, has been taking this sort of tying to all
kinds of new levels in recent years. Another well know
tier of realistic patterns, that he actually fishes, is
Oliver
Edwards. His FlyTyers Masterclass is a must for
any tier wanting to refine their tying skills. His
Essential Skills and Essential Patterns DVDs are packed with
fantastic information to keep you tying al kinds of patterns
for years to come.
Cecil Guidry had a chance to tie
some flies with Oliver Edwards here at FlyMasters a number
of years ago and has since developed his own Hellgrammite
and stonefly patterns that are amazing. These are not
quick ties. in all likelihood you will probably never
put them on the end of a leader. These flies are made
to slowdown and enjoy your time at the vise. This is a
special four hour class. There are two flies you will
learn to tie but you will also be learning a number of
skills that you can apply to other flies to improve all of
your fly tying.
Bring your tools, your patience and your enthusiasm.
We will have a lot of fun. |
