If you wish to improve your tying skill, here's a great opportunity.  Scott is a patient and thorough teacher. 

     Attendees will learn how to tie a single hook and tandem streamer flies.  All the materials will be provided as part of the class.  You will need your own tools, vice, bobbin and black, white, orange and red fly-tying thread (Danville or UNI will work).  The instructor will have a limited amount of HMH vises and tools if someone needs one, please let the shop know this when you are enrolling in the class.

      This class will focus on several patterns, (the instructor shoots to tie 3-4 ) all patterns will have a slight nuance that will add to your tying techniques.  Streamers will be tied on Partridge long shank streamer or tandem hooks which will be provided.   We will tie Carrie Stevens, Mike Martinek, Bud Wilcox and one of Scott’s new patterns which will offer you a wide range of great flies for the Northeast.
