Episode 173 - August West

On episode 173, we nerd out hard on Pop Fleyes. To do this, we have August West from August on fly, on the show. August is an up and coming commercial fly tyer from Minnesota USA, who specializes in all things Bob Pop. On this show, Voltz isn't with us, which enables Chris and August to deep dive on some of the tying techniques, how to achieve what you want to in the water, the history of some of the patterns, different feathers used in these fleyes, the fusions that have accentuated some of the pop fleye patterns further, Bucktail and Bucktail alternatives and so much more. If you are into tying these sorts of flies or just wanting to have more command over natural materials on a hook, than this show is definitely for you.  This show is brought to you by Nervous Water, Kettafly, Beast Brushes, Power Pole and Flats Craft
