Hairwing and featherwing style spey flies and wets are not only beautiful to look at, but also extremely effective for catching salmon and steelhead! Join Theo Ovejas for this class on tying some of his favourite proven classic spey flies! We'll be going over material selection, mounting wings, hackles, ribbing, and more as we tie two flies, one tented mallard wing and one hairwing!
Each student will receive all materials and tools needed to tie two wicked steelhead patterns and will get to take home the flies they tie. Students should have some tying experience for this class.
Classes are roughly 2 hours in length but may vary depending on the ability of the class.
Please note: Pre-Booking 24 hours in advance is mandatory, walk-ins are not accepted
Tools and Materials:
We provide the tools, vise, and materials you will need for the duration of the class.
