Fly Tying Workshop

Sunday, January 24: 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Mike Gifford - Fly Design and Tying for Tarpon and Permit

 

Interactive fly tying workshop that will teach how to design and tie flies for Tarpon and Permit for every flats fishing situation. Workshop targets tiers with intermediate to advanced tying experience. Workshop will cover three of the most successful Tarpon patterns and three of the most effective Permit patterns that Mike has designed, refined, and fished in the salt with success. This workshop will focus on materials, colors, fly behaviour, etc. for different angling situations and tiers will come away with an understanding of “when to fish what” .

 

Tiers can just bring a vise and hand tools. Materials will be supplied by Country Pleasures.
