Tying Whistlers and Hollow Pike Flies with Steve Luethi and Josh Nugent


What an enjoyable evening! Steve Luethi and Josh Nugent spent the evening teaching everyone how to tie whistlers and hollow pike flies. Steve and Josh, owner of Out Flyfishing Outfitters in Calgary, also shared some video from their hosted trips to Argentina and Cree Lake in Northern Saskatchewan. 

The 17 tyers who came out tonight learned how to tie bulky looking flies by use sparse amounts of tying material. It certainly makes it easier to cast these big flies. Whisters are known for the "whistling noise" the bead chain eyes make. Big toothy critters cannot layoff these enticing flies.

Next week, Dan Reaman is our guest presenter. Dan has an excellent program lined up. See you next week!
