Synopsis of Class
|
One of the main attractions people have to fly fishing is
the excitement of catching fish on the surface of the
water. Whether you are dry fly fishing for trout or casting
big topwater flies for musky you just can not beat the
thrill of watching the fish come up to the surface and take
your fly. There is some
dry fly fishing
opportunities here in central Indiana but mostly fishing
flies on the surface means poppers for bass and bluegill.
There are hundreds of popper patterns as well as
ways of tying them. In this class we will focus on four
different flies that help represent the style of poppers to
tie and fish as well as various complexities of creating
these flies. All of these are productive smallmouth
patterns and are fun to tie!
The following are the
flies you will tie in this class.
