INTERMEDIATE FLY TYING CLASS - DRY FLIES for TROUT and LANDLOCKED SALMON
with NH Guide Dave Kolesar

Saturday - March 13th, 2027 - 11:00am to 4:00pm

OVERVIEW: Dry fly fishing for trout and landlocked salmon is considered by many anglers to be the ultimate fly-fishing experience. Casting dry flies to rising trout or salmon can be very exciting. In this class we'll tie some successful patterns to use in New England waters and beyond. We'll start with some simple hair wing patterns and work our way up to some flies that are more difficult. At the end of the class participants will have a collection of flies to match the hatch during the upcoming season.

GOAL: Participants will be able to tie a selection of effective dry flies for trout and landlocked salmon. They will also gain experience in various fly tying techniques, selecting and handling materials to tie effective patterns and how to present these patterns to the fish. The class will concentrate on dry flies used by NH guides for fooling trout and landlock salmon.

PREREQUISITES: Students must be 14 years old or older. An intermediate level of fly-tying experience and skill is required for this class. Please bring your personal vice and tools if desired, though a vice and tools can be furnished with advance notice. All materials required to tie the hosted flies in class will be provided.

CLASS SIZE: 10 MAX
