Next Fly-Tying Night
6:00 pm - Tuesday...
Members meet at the clubhouse on the first Tuesday of the month, September through April, to grab a slice of pizza and tie a few flies. All members are welcome, no fly tying experience is needed. Some loaner tying equipment is available for use at the club.
Every month one or two of the more experienced fly-tying members take the lead in choosing which patterns to tie and materials are shared as new techniques are learned.
