Fly Tying Induction Night



I attended the Lakeland Fly Dressers Guilds fly tying induction night yesterday. The tying classes start on the 5th January for 8 weeks.
This was a chance to register for the tying classes and find out what flies and techniques we will be learning. I have signed up to the beginners class again as this will give me more training on the basics, which will enable me to start producing flies of the quality that I would like to tie.
Some of the flies we will be tying are Peter Ross, Mallard & Claret, Blae & Black and the Greenwells Glory.
We have signed up at least 3 new members for the tying class and for the Guild. All newcomers have been invited along to next weeks monthly Guild meeting where the guest speaker is Steve Cooper, owner of Cookshill Fly Tying.. his talk is on fishing in Iceland where he has been recently and he will also be giving a skinning demonstration and showing how to preserve the skins when done.
