Fly Tying Session Thursday 5th November 2026
November already – still no frost and the trees are in full leaf!
We meet for our next Fly Tying session at the Baskerville Arms at 19:00 - 21:30 on Thurs 5th Nov 2026.
Programme
Trout and Grayling Group
John W is pausing the Trout and Grayling course for a couple of sessions to allow our new members to catch up with the basic techniques – however you are welcome to tie a Disco Shrimp and a Killer Bug – both excellent for Grayling. Dressings (PDF)
Sea Trout and Salmon Group
After leaving his Tube Fly vice behind last week, Peter W will try again to tie Black and Yellow tubes and coneheads for spring salmon in a variety of styles. Dressings (PDF)
Mid Season Dinner / Social
Our regular mid-season Dinner & Social at the Baskervill Arms will be on Thursday 10th December at 7pm. I hope everyone is free to come along.
Please let Charles know if you would like to attend and he will send out the Menu and prices for pre-ordering and payment.
The British Fly Fair Internation (BFFI)
The annual BFFI will be held at the Staffordshire County Showground again, on Sat 6th and Sunday 7th February 2027. Well worth visiting to see superb worldclass fly tyers demonstrating their skill. The FDG hold their AGM at the show on the Saturday late afternoon.
