KEVIN DANIELS WILL DEMONSTRATE HOW TO BUILD WALLY WINGS AND TIE DIFFERENT PATTERNS WITH THEM

 

Most of us are familiar with wings made from feathers in various fashions, including pulling off barbs on one side and pulling the barbs down on the other side, to simulate mayfly wings. These are made one feather for one wing. However, fewer of us are familiar with what are called Wally Wings. One set of Wally Wings are made from one feather, by stripping one side of the stem attached to the barbs, and then the other. Thus making a matched pair of wings. This is done after tying in the feather to the hook. Kevin will demonstrate how to do this precisely and efficiently.  

 If you have not seen these done, you will be fascinated with learning how to do them. If you have tied them, you will appreciate the demonstration of how to do them efficiently, because you know that, while they are neat and beautiful, they require practice to learn. And you will appreciate picking up hints on how to do them.

One of the great things about what we do at these meetings is learning new and interesting techniques that make our tying more enjoyable and satisfying. I know I truly enjoyed learning how to tie Wally Wings, and practicing to be able to tie them better. 

THE TECH TABLE

Dan Kellogg will be manning the Tech Table again, and, as you all know, most of us will learn new techniques, or learn them better. And, as I already said, this enriches our tying and the enjoyment of practicing it. I am intentionally not telling you what this presentation is about, but I will tell you that it is an area that usually gets little attention, yet is much more important than the attention it gets.

This is a meeting you do not want to miss!
