In absence of the information about those tyers I decided to proceed with what I had and over the next few years, if I could get the information on the others, I would consider releasing a second book. Never did I realize that it would take me six years to gather that information. During the six years I had the pleasure of personally meeting a number of the tyers. Sadly some of them are no longer with us. During the many meetings I had with the fly tyers, their families and friends I will never forget their kindness and generosity.

  • History: Uses: How to Fish
    Klinkhamer Special (presented by Alex Blaque) History: This pattern was designed and first tied by Hans van Klinken in 1984. The L T Caddis however was given the now recognized name ‘Klinkhåmer Special’ by his colleague Hans de Groot. Other tyers including Tomas Olsen & Roy Richardson are credited by Hans for similar solutions but this particular emerger pattern is Hans’ own work. Uses: The Klinkhåmer Special, or Klinkhammer as it’s often known, or even just Klink, is a very popular fly originating from Western Europe. Tied with a parachute hackle, it is an emerging caddis pattern fished during corresponding hatches. Colour and size variations of the fly adapt it for use during other hatches and make it useful as a searching fly in a similar way to the Adams. The Klinkhåmer Special is traditionally a trout and grayling pattern but should be considered for all kinds of fishing situations where fish will rise to a fly; it’s certainly been used to take Salmon and I’ve caught some good size chub with it. How to fish: Originally fished to best effect by it’s author using a ‘downstream’ presentation, the pattern is effective when presented using any standard dry fly technique. Effective for trout, grayling, and any free rising species. Recipe: Hook: 8 - 20 Partridge 15BN or 15BNX or Orvis Klinkhammer 8A00 or a curved caddis hook Thread: Grey or Tan Body: Fly-Rite poly 2 dubbing light-tan or to suit Wing: White poly-yarn Hackle: Blue-dun cock hackle Thorax: Peacock herl Variations: The hooks 15BN and 15BNX are the current patterns from Partridge.

  • Sw 439 Making Artificial Lures
    WILDLIFE SW 439 August 2001 PROJECT Making Artificial Lures INTRODUCTION If you like to fish, chances are that you use worms, minnows, grasshoppers, frogs and other natural bait. Almost any tackle store you visit will have both natural or “live bait” and artificial lures which are made to imitate the real thing. Artificial lures were used by many early civilizations and have been around literally thousands of years. Early lures were made of a variety of materials. For example, American Indians and Eskimos made lures out of the bones of certain birds and animals which resembled minnows. Books were written as early as the 15th Century describing the art of fly fishing and fly tying. Even then, feathers, hair and thread helped early anglers to fool trout, salmon and bass. Today, there are many types of artificial lures from which to choose — such as plastic worms, balsa wood minnows, metal spinners, spoons, lead jigs, swimming plugs, surface plugs and even battery-pow- ered frogs. Such lures are used with spinning spin/ casting and casting equipment (rod and reel) by fish- ermen in both fresh and salt water. Some lures are inexpensive, but others may cost more than your weekly allowance. Fly fishermen also have a very large number of insect, frog and minnow imitations from which to select, many of which are made from animal hairs, feathers, yarn, cork and thread. Flies must be very lightweight, because it is the fly line (unlike spin and plug fishing) which carries the lure through the air. There are, in fact, several thousand recognized trout and salmon patterns, and hundreds of bass patterns.

  • The Fly Formerly Known As Prince
    The Fly formerly Known as Prince The next fly tying session will be held at the Odd Fellows Hall in San Luis Obispo on Tuesday, November 28th at 6:30. Jim Snodgrass will demonstrate how to tie a modified Prince Nymph. Jim learned this fly from an article in the Autumn 2017 edition of Fly Tyer Magazine entitled “The Fly Formerly Known as Prince.” The article described how a Prince Fly was transformed with holographic plastic film feathers and red tying thread to become “The Fly Formerly Known as Prince” (“Formerly” for short). The Formerly was developed by Rick Lubrant after participating in a basic fly tying class in 1995. The instructor suggested buying supplies at a craft store rather than a fly shop in order to find interesting new ingredients for making wings or bodies. Rick discovered holographic plastic film, which he cut into blot-sized feathers. He then substituted the plastic film feathers for white goose biots on the Prince Nymph; added red tag down the hook bend, and the Formerly was created. Rick states that the Formerly is a nymph, so it should be fished deep and sometimes with a smaller dropper. He occasionally used a smaller version of the same fly as the dropper. The river determines the exact depth, but three to five feet deep usually works well. The Formerly catches fish on clear creeks as well as large cloudy rivers. Rick states that the Formerly is his go-to fly for fishing from North Carolina to Montana to California. All materials will be supplied, but be sure and bring your own thread… Red 6/0 (140 denier) thread.

  • Atlantic Salmon Fly Tying from Past to Present
    10 Isabelle Levesque Atlantic Salmon Fly Tying from past to present Without pretending to be an historian, I can state that the evolution of salmon flies has been known for over two hundred years. Over that time, and long before, many changes have come to the art of fly tying; the materials, tools, and techniques we use today are not what our predecessors used. In order to understand the modern art, a fly tier ought to know a bit of the evolution and history of line fishing, fly fishing, and the art of tying a fly. Without going into too much detail, here is a brief overview of the evolution and the art of angling and fly tying. I will start by separating the evolution of fly tying into three categories: fly fishing, the Victorian era, and the contemporary era. Historians claim that the first scriptures on flies were from Dame Juliana Berners’s Book of Saint Albans (1486), which incorporated an earlier work, A Treatise of Fishing with an Angle. The Benedictine nun wrote on outdoor recreation, the origin of artificial flies, and fly-fishing equipment. This book was updated in 1496 with additional fishing techniques. In the early 1500s, a Spanish author by the name of Fernando Basurto promoted fishing among sportsmen with hisLittle Treatise on Fishing; but the first masterpiece of English literature on fishing wasThe Compleat Angler by Izaak Walton and Charles Cotton, published in 1653. Walton was a passionate fisherman who wanted to promote fishing as an activity in communion with nature. Unlike modern books about fishing, Walton’s did not specify equipment or techniques to use in particular fishing situations.

    FLY TYI NG GROUP IFFF FLY TYING GROUP Fly Tying Skills Awards Program Produced by the International Fereration of Fly Fishers, Fly Tying Group as an adaptation of the Guild Awards Scheme of the UK Fly Dresser’s Guild. Why an IFFF Fly Tying Skills Award Program? The IFFF Fly Ting Group exists to preserve, enhance and support the art of fly tying. Our focus generally is two- fold: sharing of information and teaching so that more people may take an interest in our craft and become more knowledgeable and accomplished tiers. The purpose of the IFFF Fly Tying Group is as follows: “The FTG is dedicated to the preservation, enhancement and support of the art of fly tying as a historic element of the fly-fishing experience. Archiving of historic documents, development of educational and instructional materials, teaching and demonstration are fundamental to perpetuating the art of fly tying for anglers who fish with the artificial fly.” For individuals to improve as tiers, they need to be able to measure their progress. The IFFF Fly Tying Skills Awards Program provides IFFF members with the opportunity to develop or reinforce their fly tying skills and test their progress against a consistent, standard at three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold. Program Overview and Goals This International Federation of Fly Fishers (IFFF) Fly Tying Skills Awards Program is an educational program for all IFFF members who care to take part. The Awards Program is managed for and on behalf of the IFFF by Fly Tying Group. The goal of the Awards Program is to encourage IFFF members to develop and improve their fly tying skills at their own pace through a structured learning plan with progressive goals and in so doing contribute to the purpose of the FTG.
