Guide Flies on Monday February 28th at 7 PM on Zoom

Hi Everyone!

Monday February 28th at 7 pm MST, we will be tying 4 guide flies.  Guide flies are quick or straight forward flies to tie and they are excellent fish catchers. This is our second last session of the year. I have added the materials list below each fly.


I will also be a Zoom session for Trout Unlimited Canada on Thursday March 3rd at 7 pm. This is part of the Tying for Conservation Fundraiser. I will be tying 4 excellent minnow patterns. You will have to make a small donation to Trout Unlimited Canada to join onto that session. The link for the program is right here. I hope you will help TU Canada raise some funds for their programming! My goal is the raise $1000.

Be sure to tune in and tie along or just take the session in. See you Monday!
