Hi Everybody!
Evan Ritchie was our guest fly tyer tonight and he showed us how to tie three excellent fly patterns. Two very unique patterns and a very reliable BWO Thorax pattern that can easily be used to also tie Tricos.
Over the years Evan has been the glue that has kept the fly tying club together. He has taught us all some great patterns and tonight was no exception! The unique chironomid tied with moose main, and a damsel pattern that uses larva lace as a body material made for some interesting fish catching patterns.
Thanks Evan for the neat patterns.
Next week, Bernie Peet is our guest tyer. I am already looking forward to his presentation!
