Bar Flies is Back! – Fly Tying Classes

A run-away success in 2010, Bar Flies is back for a second season and it’s bigger and better than ever. Join us at the Dexter Pub (8114 Main St, Dexter, MI) on Wednesday nights starting November 16th. Doors open at 7:00PM and classes begin at 7:30. Each week consists of a different guest tier and their favorite patterns. Patterns cover Bass, Pike, Musky, Carp, Steelhead, Trout, Permit, and Bonefish. See schedule below for each week’s tier and agenda.

Each session is $20 which includes all materials and hooks needed to tie each pattern. Attendees are responsible for a vise, tools, and thread.
