WD-40 Flash

For the 2024-2025 season we are changing the event to evenings on the First Monday of the month.

This months Pub & Dub will be Monday, Dec 2nd 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 (Pub-n-Dub@rmftu.org) before each session, and let him know if you need a loaner vise or tools.

Please thank and support our hosts at Gilded Goat Brewery and Taproom by purchasing a beverage.

This Months Pattern: WD-40 Flash

The WD 40 is a workhorse, imitating a midge profile yet suggesting baitis or other mayfly nymph. It's scalable - you can tie it in tiny sizes for winter fishing or tailwaters. If you are trying to simplify your flybox, or would like to avoid the headache of fly selection, tie this one in a couple of colors and in #18 to #22, and you are good to go!
