Lakeland Fly Dressers Guild


I was at tonight’s Guild tying class, we were tying Bibio’s and Blue Zulu’s. My Bibio was poor to say the least, but as you can see from the pic my Blue Zulu although not great is passable, more practice needed for both of these types of fly. I have never been good at palmering but I have learned a lot from tonight’s class.
Mainly learning to choose the correct feather for the palmer and for the head hackle. Also learned that I need to get better hen capes and also that a good saddle hackle wood be better than the cock cape that I currently use.
