We are hosting in-person only tying sessions as a chance to get out of the house and do something fun and rewarding. We are starting our fly tying classes with a special introductory class covering the basics (types of flies, types of hooks, terminology, tools, etc.) and the key to successful fly tying—thread control! If you think you might want to join us for ANY of our sessions, and want to keep up with the instructor, please attend the January 27 session as it is the most important as a good fly starts with a good thread base!
We have some loaner vices and tools so all we need is you!
