if you do this on thursday night that means coach wont be able to make it because it will conflict with the gunsmoke marathon on tnt. WTF? just joking around, sounds like fun.

Just a reminder that the Weekly FLY TYING THURSDAYS begins tonight -- Jan 22 -- at 7pm. Fly tyers of all levels welcome - there will be both professional and beginner tyers present (and lots of folks in the middle). If you don't have your own vise, there will be several available to use. Bring your tying gear and supplies, and beverages and/or snacks if you'd like. Other stuff that might be handy includes a portable tying light, extension cord, a spare vise for a beginner to tie on -- or whatever else you can think of. Start filling up your flyboxes for spring hatches, knock out some steelhead flies, or whatever you'd like, in a comfortable, fun atmosphere. Fly tyer extraordinaire Nick Pionessa will be available to answer particular questions and address tying issues and conundra. (I think he mentioned that he might do something about tying small, neat heads on steelhead flies tonight, as several people had asked him about it recently). It should be fun -- I'll see you there!

a good time for sure. for next week we will have a bigger table where more folks can tie together as opposed to separate tables. mainly just to add to the camaraderie. it was a good turnout but we could handle a few more even so don't be shy.
for the coming weeks i urge tyers to come in with something they need help on. we'll do our best to straighten out the problems. or if you just want to sit and drink a beverage, BS and tie a few that all good too.
Thanks to Chris for the extra help with the setup.
