Welcome to the first Season of the Tasty Bug Tying Series, brought to you by Fly Shop of the Bighorns located in Sheridan, WY. This season is all about streamers, the bigger the better. In Episode 1, Matt Huckeba ties his own pattern, the “Dirty Dancer”. Tune in next week for a new streamer!
Featuring Matt Huckeba in Caesar’s Chair
Matt would like to acknowledge and thank John McClure and Mike Schmidt, as their flies the “Kill Whitey” and the “Viking Midge”, respectively, were the inspiration for his own fly, the “Dirty Dancer”.
