As promised, here are the dates for our first round of winter fly tying courses. The dates are subject to minimum numbers (3 pers) and course numbers are limited to 6 participants. The course is structured with some simple ties first off, and the complex flies last – so the course is suited for all abilites from beginners to experienced. Your flies will benefit from the tricks and tips taught in these classes, from a simple and durable technique for tying with peacock herl, down to the best ways to tie deer-hair. 

Learn to tie all the flies you’ll need for the new season.  From simple and deadly Stick Caddis or  F-Fly patterns, right up to the chunky WMD and Chernobyl Ant.  All in all, a minimum of 12 patterns will be covered.

Cost: $190 per person, with tying notes, fishing notes and required tying material on the night supplied by RiverFly.

Dates : 5 nights, 2 hours/night, every Thursday starting 7pm 21 May at the Essential Fly Fisher, 105 York Street Launceston.

 

Devonport / Hobart Classes: If you and 5 mates would like to form a class and have a suitable venue, please contact us: for your efforts we’ll give you your place free of charge!
