The Arkansas Fly Fishers invite you to a special fly tying clinic with Keith Reeves of Ozark Mountain Fly on Sunday, July 19, from 2–4 PM at the Witt Stephens Nature Center in Little Rock.
Keith will lead “Smallmouth Flies for the Ozarks and Ouachitas,” a warmwater-focused workshop highlighting flies that Keith carries every day on his own box to target smallmouth in the Ozarks and Ouachitas—some of the most beautiful places to fish in the world…and they are right in our backyard.
This clinic is perfect for all skill levels — whether you’re a fly tying novice or looking to find some efficient and effective smallmouth flies to put in your box. The flies we will focus on include Grajewski's Yard Sale (a killer streamer), the Quick Crawler crayfish pattern, and Keith's own PB & J Jig fly (rumor has it, 66 smallmouth were recently caught in one day on this fly!).
Participants are expected to bring a vise, basic tying tools, and appropriate thread (some like bringing a small light). AFF provides the other needed materials. Participants are able to see a live, magnified video of the instructor's fly throughout.
Don't have your own tying equipment but curious about tying? AFF has a limited number of high quality Regal vises and tying tools available. Reserve early to ensure access.
Come join us for an fun afternoon of tying, learning, and talking about one of our native fish with one of Arkansas’s finest fly tiers, fly designers, and guides!
The cost is $15 for AFF members and $25 for non-members. Space is limited!
