Fly Tying

During the winter months, Doc Fritchey volunteers conduct fly tying classes at both the beginner and advanced levels.  Learning to tie flies also contributes to an understanding of the aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates that trout find to their liking.  And on the stream, it’s hard to beat the thrill of actually using one’s own creation to entice and, hopefully, catch a fish.

Other events where chapter members display their tying skills are during Youth Field Days and various conservation programs geared to youth.
