This
fly-tying class teaches participants how to tie two essential trout flies: the Woolly
Bugger, a versatile streamer imitating baitfish and leeches, and the Pheasant
Tail Nymph, a classic mayfly imitation. The class also highlights the
importance of entomology in fly-tying, helping anglers match their flies to the
natural insect life cycle for better fishing success. This class is designed
for ages 13+. We have a limit of 5 people who can bring their handmade fly home
to ensure we have enough, those who make their own will be charged $5 for
materials. If you sign up after our 5-person limit you will be able to come and
watch. Register in advance by calling our office at 518-793-0511.
