Tying Flies for Helen

Tying Flies For Helen

Come tie flies for the Chattahoochee. Spring is a great time to fish the North Georgia area. There is plenty of public water around Helen and some great Trophy Water. If you have never fished the Chattahochee at the Nachoochee Bend you will be surprised with the quality fishing. Fishing the Soque is one of those rivers that you will never forget.

The March Brown is a fly pattern with a long history. Originally fished in the streams of England over 600 years ago, no self-respecting fly fisherman would be caught without this pattern in their fly box in every form including nymph, emerger and adult.

This class includes new fly pattern variations this year. You will receive enough materials to tie four of each fly pattern.
