Another great fly tying video brought to us by Fly Shop of the Bighorns.
In this Episode, Chris Schneider ties the “Optimus Swine”, a fly developed by Eli Berant of Michigan. Chris and Peter would like to give a shout out to Eli Berant of Great Lakes Fly for allowing us the opportunity to tie his innovative pattern, “Optimus Swine”. Chris prefers this fly for targeting Muskie.
