PSWOTF - Women's Fly Tying - October 13th - Fly: "Just Another Euro Jig"

We'll be tying flies at Orvis the 2nd Sunday of each month through the rest of the year. We'll start at 1:30 and wrap up around 3:30, the shop closes at 4. Street parking is free downtown on Sundays, it might be a little crowded so plan for some extra time to find a spot. There are also paid lots and garages nearby if that's easier for you.

 

We are happy to help if you're new to fly-tying and want to learn, we have extra vices and tools if you need them just let us know so we make sure we have enough. 

 

If you have or able to get the supplies please bring them, otherwise we will have enough supplies. We accept donations to be able to replenish supplies.
