This will likely be our last tying night of 2017, with more to follow in early 2018. Take a break from the holiday shopping, chaos of in-laws and Santa visits and too much traffic to recharge your batteries and tie a few flies. Bring your vise, tools and materials and work on whatever you'd like. We'll be demoing some of our favorite composite loop techniques and winter steelhead patterns. We'll bring extensions and power strips but a personal tying light…

We absolutely love tying Intruder style flies! Sitting at the vise, sipping a cold beer or hot coffee, while spinning up the latest swinging creation is some of the most fun one can have off of the water.

Anyone is welcome to come tie or simply watch and imbibe. It's anyone's guess what we may be tying but likely we'll delve into some spring Puget Sound saltwater patterns or early season stillwater trout stuff. Bring your vise,…
