This week will be a bit more up to speed what I think we'll tie is a Rhody Flat Wing which is much like the Ray's Fly but incorporates a flat saddle feather ties in flat on the shank of the hook to help promote profile from below and to make it look "alive" in the water when stripped or to allow to sit in moving water much like white water or current in an outflow or from tide. Then we will will tie a traditional Lefty's Deceiver in Chart/White. Recipes below and I look forward to having everyone again. Please bring whatever you have for the mentioned patterns and tools if you have them it sounds like we might have more people this week so I'm trying to make sure everyone is covered in all departments.
Thanks and sorry about the delay this will get better if Chris can keep me away from the camera.......see everyone tomorrow night.
