SUMMARY:Activities Meeting - Ken Harfoot Featured Tyer
DESCRIPTION:Casting is available in the Fly Fishing Training & Education Center (otherwise known as the gym). \n\nTying With Ken Harfoot \nI am taking a step back in time for the March 1st tying session. I was inspired by an article in the Flyfisher magazine 2012 publication. The authors Terry and Roxanne Wilson pulled four patterns from the “Book of the Black Bass\,” (1881) by Dr. James A. Henshall. The most iconic figure in the uniquely American sport of bass fishing is Dr. James A. Henshall. A physician and author of the “Book of the Black Bass” (1881) and other works\, the good doctor abandoned his medical practice at the age of 49 to pursue his passion for the piscato-rial sciences. \nHere are the patterns we will tie as time permits. \nHenshall\nWing: light drab (dove)\nHackle: white\nBody: peacock herl\, gold tip\nTail: peacock sword \nPolka\nWing: guinea\nHackle: scarlet\nBody: scarlet floss\, gold rib\nTail: brown and white fibers (goose wing)\n \nOconomowor\nWing: cinnamon woodcock\nHackle: white\nBody: cream floss\, gold rib\nTail: brown deer tail\n \nOriole\nWing: yellow goose\nHackle: black\nBody: black floss\, gold rib and tip\nTail: black and white \nI was drawn to the poetic writings from a time all but forgotten. This was the closing epilogue: \nBut there are flies\, and enough\, to suit those of every taste\, even should the angler be so fastidious and dainty as\n“Ye Sunberry Fisher\,” as described by Punch:\n“Ye Sunberry fisher has flies of all feathers\,\nFor all sorts of seasons\, in all sorts of weathers.\nFlies when ye Springtide is blustrie and showerie\,\nFlies when ye Summer is grassie and bowerie\,\nFlies when ye Autumn is golden and grainie\,\nFor hot weather\, cold weather\, mistie\, or rainie.\nRed-spinner\, palmer\, black peacock and gray\,\nYellow dun\, golden dun\, March brown\, and May\,\nSand-fly and stone-fly\, and alder and gnat\,\nBlack midge and marlow bug-all round his hat.” \nFor a printable copy of this visit the MFFC fly tying pattern library. \nFor a copy of the original book in all it’s glory\, click here. \n\n\nMFFC Meeting \nJoin via Zoom\nhttps://zoom.us/j/94894893998?pwd=TGYrWnJyd0dCelVxbXdYU1lVVmd5dz09 \nMeeting ID: 948 9489 3998\nPasscode: Jvq0q6
