Shane has been tying flies for 9 years now. If he had to tie one particular style of trout flies it would have to be the old Smokey Mountain flies. This class will cover some of the most beautiful flies the human eye has ever seen. Some of the flies covered will be the Hazel Creek, Adams Variant, Smokey Mountain Thunderhead, and Yellow May. These are just a few of what will be covered in this class. There are a lot of dry flies in this class which makes this class a little tougher. Tiers need to have some tying experience.
