Reel Skills: Fly Tying with the Experts
Advertisement
Learn the art of fly tying with the experts from Platte Rivers Veterans in Reel Skills! Whether you're a seasoned angler or a complete beginner, this hands-on workshop will teach you essential fly-tying terms, techniques, and best practices. By the end of the session, you'll take home your very own handcrafted fly—and possibly a new favorite hobby!
All supplies are provided, but participants are encouraged to bring their own fly-tying equipment if they have it.
Open to adults and high schoolers, children 12-15 older must attend with an adult.
Registration is preferred to ensure enough materials for everyone. Join us and get hooked on the craft of fly tying!
This month we'll be tying the renegade fly! Renegade is a fly that epitomizes versatility - it can be fly fished dry as a mating midge or whatever is fluttering around, or it can be fished as a wet fly in lakes or swung across your favorite trout stream or river. The iridescent peacock body of this favorite trout fly attracts attention, and the two hackles provide buoyancy and the impression of movement that fish can't resist.
About our program partner: Platte Rivers Veterans Fly Fishing provides basic fly fishing, fly casting, fly tying and rod building classes for veterans. Participants are from all walks of life, all fishing abilities, and from all branches of the military. Fly fishing gear, fly tying equipment, and materials for rod building are provided at no cost to veterans. Fishing trips, both one day and multi-day, are also provided free of charge to veterans.
