Last year we had 8 to 10 tyers performing at one time. It's free and the tyers are specialized in many different types of fly tying such as trout, bass, panfish and saltwater.
Live Bluegrass and Southern Appalachian music will continue on the stage both days. Food vendors will serve up a real southern meal or snack for you. Once you get here you won't want to leave.
Lefty Kreh, Bob Clouser, Joe Humphreys and other notable fly fishermen will offer free seminars both days. Here's your chance to meet and talk to some of the most famous legends in our sport.
