Synopsis of Class
One of the most anticipated hatches of the year in Michigan is the Summer Hex Hatch.  Hexagenia Limbata hatches around the end of June and first week of July.  They are the biggest mayflies to hatch and trout love them.  Fortunately, because they are so big, the patterns you tie for them are big and easier to tie.  If you have the opportunity to catch the summer hex hatch you will want these flies with you.

Incidentally, they are also great summer smallmouth bass flies!

For this class you will tie the following flies.
