Absolutely! There's only enough room for about 6 guys to tie at one time, but with three hours of tying time, we should be able to get everyone a chance to tie several flies to use later in the day.

So far, the majority of the people that say they're coming prefer to fish the Lehigh Valley, so the flies we'll be covering will be Baetis patterns (Got that Lefty?). If you only bring materials to tie Baetis immitations, it'll cut down on what you have to bring.

I suggest bringing a tying light if you can, as the light isn't the best in there for tying. Pedestal vises are recommended if you have one. The furniture in there is pretty fancy, so we've got to be careful with c-clamps and such.

This is gonna be a pretty unique tying class. It's the first I've ever heard of where you get to learn some new patterns, and then get the opportunity to learn how to fish them effectively right afterwards. It's also a rare day when you get to see Old Lefty tie more than one fly in a sitting.

Just being able to learn how to tie Dave's patterns is....priceless.

Shoot about the best I can do is find out where you guys are going to be fishing and meet up there.
No chance of me making it to the tying session but would like to meat up with you guys again.

Heritage could you PM me and let me know where you guys are going to meat up at and do some fishing?

Take care

Hope to see you there!

Hi Guys,

I am brand new to tying. First class is with Tully TU next week. Is this something I can get in on or would I hold you guys back? I don't want to be a burden to the group.

Thanks

j,

You are welcomed to any PAFF event that is posted on the boards. Your skill level is not a problem. Feel free man.

See you there you'll walk away with so much useful information and new fishing buddies! See ya there

By all means, join us! We'll make sure you walk into that TU tying class armed for bear. This is a golden opportunity to get a huge jump on the rest of the class there.

You're gonna love this group - they're a blast! Remind me in case I forget - I have a gift for you that will be very helpful in your tying adventures.

H.A.

Lest anyone feel overly apprehensive, this IS NOT a formal tying class. It IS a time for us to get together to have a good time of FELLOWSHIP and FUN around the tying vise and on the stream.

Did I catch that right? GIFTS???

OH, GOODY!!!!!!!

I was just wondering what you need to bring as far as fly tying tools goes. Do you need to bring your own vise and other tools and materials?

Feel free to bring your tying stuff, but remember, there is limited table space/elbow room. If you can keep you tying stuff on the floor, and just have out what you need, it'll be easier on you. We're gonna have to rotate tyers to allow everyone that wants to tie a chance to do so. Kinda like a Chinese fire drill with tying stuff.

Right back atcha...

HaHa that sounds good to me. I will definitely be there and from what I read so far it sounds like we are going to be tying baetis flies. I never tied them so I'm not sure what the materials are. If you could get back to me with what i will need i would appreciate it.


Thanks...

I think I am in, can't pass up getting "learned" by Old Lefty

Don't care where we fish....
