Tying Steelhead Prawns with Matthew Slater – February 19, 2012

Matt will demonstrate fly tying techniques of the intruder with some modifications to make them more prawn-like. He will also be venturing away from the standards of rhea and ostrich and into the world of synthetics – EP fibers and rubber legs. Matt, who made his first trip out for steelhead last fall, “has the bug.” Plus he’s an accomplished and creative tier.
