NBFF Monthly Fly Tying Class is this Thursday, April 4th

Our monthly Fly-tying session will be held on this Thursday from 6-8pm at the Westside Community Center, 2932 South Interstate 35 Frontage Road, New Braunfels. This month we will be tying Pat Dorsey’s Top-Secret Midge.  We will start at 6:00 with a short educational video about the use of beads on flies and then proceed with a video on tying the Top-Secret Midge pattern.
The Club will supply the needed tying materials.  If you have your own tying tools, please bring them, but we have several sets available for use, if needed. If you’re bringing you own tools, brown thread is suggested, but black should work.  Come join us and learn or practice your tying skills and tie a few flies for yourself and tie some for our next Club monthly meeting fly raffle.
Hope to see you there,
Gary
