The Lynwood show is nearly upon us. I will be offering classes in Unique Hackling Techniques and Tips both Saturday and Sunday morning. We will have a look at over 30 techniques, giving the tyer a huge range of design features to build into new flies or with which to refresh older imitations. If you can make it, please do, it will prove to be time well spent; go here.

A class learning to spin elk hair hackles

Stroke the hackle forward. Coat the body with flexible head celemt. Place several drops of flexible head cement into the bas of the hackle. The cement will hold the fibers nicely in place.

One of the hackling tactics that we will learn is how to make an elk hair hackle.The big elk hair hackle allow the imitation to be danced over the surface with a most enticing action.
