Deer Hair Backswimmer tied by Rick Miyauchi
What a fantastic way to wind down the 2025-2026 fly tying season. We tied up three different types of backswimmers. That included tying up a deer hair backswimmer. That was a real challenge and I was impressed with your results!
The best part about the evening was the great turn out! I absolutely love seeing everyone working together, visiting and just plain having a great time!
...as we bring the tying season to a close for the group, the fly fishing season is amping up. I'm excited just like many of you! I do want to thank our presenters. We have such a diverse amount of tying expertise in our group. I am very appreciative to all of you who helped with the tying sessions. I especially want to thank Adam for all he has done to keep our gang tying at Reliance Oilfield Service Learning Centre.
Keep checking back on our blog! There will be fly fishing reports, flies that are working and bug hatch information throughout the fly fishing season! See you out on the water!!!!

If you like to work with spun deer hair, this is a tool you will need.
