Learn Fly Tying

One of the most frequent comments we hear is "I would love to learn to tie flies".

Both simple and complicated but for sure, Fly Tying is one of the most satisfying skills a fisherman can have.

Deighan Cherry

Fourteen year old Deighan Cherry began tying flies at the age of 5. 

Deighan is the cofounder of the international tying group @fly_girl_global where she shares her numerous patterns with other young lady anglers around the world.  A creative, well rounded tier focusing on techniques rather than individual patterns, she ties for cold, warm, and salt water with success in all three.

She enjoys competing against adults in professional fly tying competitions and traveling to fish with her online tying friends.
