Hey all you Steelhead guys!

Hey all you guys that chase steelhead or have thought about it!

The NorthCoast Fly Fishers show is coming up on January 14th. It's a great event to attend especially if you've even had ANY curiosity for fishing with a flyrod or fly tying!!

I know I'll probably be there most of the day.

I wanted to go in the past but keep on forgetting. How big is the expo?

Hey, good to see your still around!

It's getting to be pretty decent sized now. It's nothing like the MI show but it's pretty decent. Quite a few good tiers and the list of vendors is steadily improving. Last year there there was even a guy with a lot of the exotic stuff like blue eared pheasant for tying the fun flies. If you're checking out what the the featured tiers are doing as well as shopping it's not hard to spend 4-5 hrs. There's an awful lot of knowledge to be tapped there. I've been fooling with tying for 30 years now and felt that I picked up a few really good ideas and techniques last year.

Also for anyone that's never tied they have an area set-up to give free lessons to newbies.
