Join us on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, for an exciting evening of fly tying insights and practical wisdom at the Brodhead Creek Heritage Center in East Stroudsburg, PA.

A Fresh Take on Fly Tying

In the world of fly fishing, it’s easy to get caught up in the romance of complex techniques and intricate fly designs. But sometimes, the simplest approach can yield the best results. During his presentation, “Keeping It Simple,” Shorty will explore how returning to the basics can often be the key to success on the water. He believes that while pushing the boundaries of fly design can be both entertaining and fulfilling, embracing simplicity often serves us best in our quest for the perfect cast.
