Saltwater Tying Class

Sean Visintainer - 12/30/19

Bo Brand organizing his saltwater fly patterns for an upcoming hosted trip to Jardines de la Reina, Cuba.

Salty critters

Headed somewhere salty this winter?! Love to tie flies? Join Bo Brand on January 8th, 2020 for an afternoon of saltwater fly tying.

I have seen a lot of fly tiers in the shop over the years and I must say, I am constantly impressed with Bo's flies, especially his saltwater flies! His attention to detail is excellent and ability to use complementary materials and colors is perfect.

Bo will be teaching a few of his favorite saltwater patterns for bones, permit, and tarpon at the shop. We provide all the materials (and tools if you don't want to bring yours). Just call, sign up, and show up for a good time of learning saltwater fly tying and talking about warmer climates.

This is not a BEGINNER class, having some basic foundation of fly tying is a must.
