Tailwaters Dallas Fly Shop Event Schedule 2020
This is from the good people at the preeminent Dallas Fly Shop – Tailwaters, and as you can see, they have a great slate of events lined up for every level of fly fisher. Sure, we all know they love to do the exotic trips, and quite honestly wouldn’t we all! But, as you can see, they are invested in the beginning fly fisher (just as I have been for years) as well. DO ME A FAVOR: If you are an experienced fly tier, be sure to bring YOUR OWN fly tying materials to these BRAND NEW FLY TYING events at Tailwaters … it’s just common sense, and courtesy. (My unsolicited two-cents-worth) And if they have fly tying supplies, BUY SOMETHING please (again my own two-cents).
