Hendrickson Para Emerger
Since the Hendrickson hatch will soon be upon us, I thought this video would be timely. Tim Neal hails from Michigan and has been tying flies for 62 years. Tim knows his stuff and is a great teacher. He ties his own deadly pattern for the famous Hendrickson hatch in this fly tying video!

2017 Three Rivers Fly Fishing / Fly Tying Show
This Saturday, April 1st, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, is the 2017 Three River Fly Fishing and Fly Tying Show. I’ll be there tying along side my good friend, Todd Schotts of Grizzly Flies. There will be vendors from around the midwest and many fly tiers on hand. Plus several warmwater presentations, because we do a lot of that kind of fishing here in Indiana!
Trout are not left out, many fly fishers are coming down from Michigan and will be at the show. So it should be a good one.
Stop by the FrankenFly table and talk fishing and flies with me. I hope to see you there!
For all of the details, check out the Three Rivers Fly Fishers website.
