Tom L Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 OOPs. I forgot being on a Monday the restaurant will be closed? No Ron. We do not close on Monday. We're open 7 days. If anyone can come early for dinner, that will be great. If not we'll have some snacks and refreshments from 6:30pm-7:00pm and start tying around 7:00pm.

John Loebach Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Less than a week to go. Lots of stuff to talk about. Ed & I have been busy setting up meetings with speakers. Lets fill some tables at Thai Gardens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom L Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 Only 5 days away folks. We'll be tying the CF Minnow: Please bring your dubbing spinner along if you have one. For those that don't have one, we'll share. We'll be making dubbing noodles for the heads. It is the same technique that I used to create the heads of these flies: All tiers and non-tiers are welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe R Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I will do everything in my power to make it. Newbie fly fisherman, never tied a fly, never seen a fly tied. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Wouldn't it be nice if some kind person would take sequential photos or film Tom's technique for creating the heads via the dubbing loop ? Just sayin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Buric Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I really don't tie myself but I have attended many tying events just to learn about flies and how to properly use them. You won't be sorry that you attended and don't be shy about asking questions. Remember the only dumb question is the one that you should have asked but didn't.

Mark Lutz Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 If Tom doesn't mind being the center of attention I can bring my Gopro and video the tie. We could post it on the site for all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom L Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 No, I do not mind, Mark. But it's going to take a major editing, before the video will be any use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 But it's going to take a major editing, before the video will be any use. No problem, we're all fly tyers and I know you could easily produce a "bloopers" reel anytime I sit down to the bench. You know the routine, accidentally cut your thread crowd the eye of the hook, finish the fly and realize there's no way you can get a line thru it to actually fish it can't find your whip finisher anywhere on the table because you've got so much clutter everywhere finish the fly only to realize you forgot to add something along the way go to add a little glue and it ends up everywhere Feel free to add your own little floss in technique (Did you catch that Terry, floss instead of flaws?)
