Hi Everybody!
Kelly Stickle was our guest tyer last night. It was Kelly's first time doing a presentation with our gang and he did a tremendous job! Kelly's theme was PMDs. He taught us three patterns that include a nymph, an emerger and of course a dry fly! Kelly also shared some very creative ideas on tying PMDs that will certainly make us think about how we construct our flies. I certainly liked his ideas on constructing a parachute post by using UV resin as well as installing hackle around the post with just UV resin holding it. Great ideas Kelly!
Thanks Kelly! Great presentation!
Next week, Doug Pullan is our guest instructor. Doug is doing Muddler Minnows and I believe sculpins. This is a presentation you will not want to miss.
