Synopsis of Class
Warm weather around here means warm water which means smallmouth bass.   Smallmouth love sculpins and there are lots of great sculpin patterns to choose from.  Sculpins live mostly on the bottom of the river beds and love rocky places.  Hence why smallmouth love rocky places (not to mention crawdads).  Sculpins come in a variety of colors and are usually one to two inches in length. This means that you can tie a variety of sizes and colors to match any circumstance.   The flies chosen for this class are simple and easy and can easily be varied to work on our waters.
