Fly Tying Club

Welcome to the Castaway Fly Tying Club. The club meets every Thursday night at 7:00p.m. from the first week of January until the time would be better spent on the water in the spring. Each week there will be two flies selected to tie. These flies will be posted every Monday, along with their recipe so that club members can prepare for Thursday’s meeting. Also, for anyone visiting the site to tie along or just to see what’s going on the vise from week to week. Go to the fly selection link for information on purchasing any of the flies posted here.

Opening Day in Vermont…Got Flies.

by Brian Z. on April 6, 2013

Already!  If you find yourself face with the opener for trout a week away and an empty fly box, I might be able to help.  I just finished tying 50 #10 BH flasback Hare’s ears and I’m moving back to BH woolly buggers.  These are great early season patterns.  If you need these or any other flies give me a call. 802-989-0398.

Way behind on fly tying

April 25, 2012

This winter was rough on keeping up with my tying and posting “Whats on the vise”.  Thanks to all who took advantage of the “Fly for a Buck” deal.  I think offering that  played a big part in why I’m so far behind in what I need to have done.  Not a big problem, but [...]

ADAMS With the mild winter and lack of snow pack, plus the record breaking warm just days ago and more to come.  All kinds of thoughts as to what effect those abnormal weather related events will have today,  as well as,  the rest of the season.  One thing we can hope is that it will [...]
