Rickard's Stillwater Callibaetis

This months Pub & Dub will be Thursday, January 4 at 6:00 PM in the loft area at the rear of the taproom at the Gilded Goat Brewery and Taproom, 3500 S. College Ave in Fort Collins.  Come and join us for an evening of socialization, swapping fish stories from your summer and maybe even learning a new pattern. 

“Pub and Dub” is a free event hosted by the Rocky Mountain Flycasters TU Chapter for members and friends to meet, have a beverage and tie flies. Marty Staab will designate a “Fly of the Month”, and the Chapter provides all tying materials (vises and tools as needed) along with video tying instructions on the big screen TV. Tyers of all abilities are welcome, and first time tyers will find themselves surrounded by others happy to assist. 

Please RSVP to Marty (mrstaab@gmail.com) before each session, and let him know if you need a loaner vise or tools.

This Months Pattern: Rickard's Stillwater Callibaetis

"Here's one of my favorite lake flies for North Park, Hohnholz, and just about any stillwater that has the Callibaetis mayflies. Denny Rickard's pattern is easy to tie, doesn't require exotic materials, and probably gets eaten as a scud as often as for the mayfly nymph."
