2012 Project Michigan,
Step #1

In a little more than two weeks I am headed up to Michigan for summer fishing fun. I will be fishing Beaver Island for three days and then off to Sylvania Wilderness for about five days. Should be all sorts of warmwater fun. The first step in 2012 Project Michigan is tying the flies. Although I have a number of flies already tied and ready to go I have to have shiny new ones. So, I have been hitting the vise every night. I tied up a bunch of Hammerheads for the trip. I have tied close to 75 of these babies in the past few days. Some are for me and some I already sent to Beaver Island for Kevin Morlock and Steve Martinez
 
In case you were not aware, A Tight Loop shot a nice video a few months ago on tying the Anderson Hammerhead. Check it out and tie some up today.

Morlock Tailer Teaser

It is no secret we are fans of A Tight Loop magazine. They just came out with the April issue and it is packet with great article, video and photos from all across the Midwest. One of my favorite videos is the tailer Teaser by Kevin Morlock. The fly was his best producer for 2011. Stuart and Kurt did a great job filming this and Kevin does an excellent job of explaining the process for tying this fly.
