over the weekend my wife had a nice surprise for me, she signed my up for tying classes over at fish west. I am looking forward to learning a little about tying. I will post pics when I feel I have something worth posting.

Thats sweet, you have an awesome wife. I hope she remembers that she got u started in tying when your addicted and spend too much money on feathers and hooks. Mine sure doesn't...Let me know if you have any questions. U should also come to the next club tying get together its a great place to learn some new tech and flies.

just did my first class last night and had a blast. one goal i had for the class was to learn to use the whip finishing tool. before I was just using my hands to finish a fly. the tool had always felt so ackward to me and I had a hard time even doing it correctly. finally after many attemps last night something finally clicked and now with a bit of practice I should be good to go. we did the san juan worm and the zebra midge last night.
