Tippets: Tying Guide Flies, Fly Fishing Film Tour on iTunes

May 17, 2016 By: Erin Block

  • Guide flies are simple and quick to tie. Ty Webb demonstrates how to tie one of these effective patterns, a soft hackle caddis emerger, in this instructional video from Swallowtail Fly Fishing. “They don’t sit in a fly shop looking pretty trying to catch anglers,” he writes. “They usually sit in my fly box often looking far from perfect and waiting to be fed to a trout.”
  • Films from the 2015 Fly Fishing Film Tour are now available for download on iTunes. The films features original footage from the best filmmakers working in fly fishing today, shot on location from Cuba to Alaska, and Florida to Mongolia.
