The following fly patterns will be auctioned off at the Cheyenne Mountain Trout Unlimited auction on April 21st. In this box are some of the best patterns tied by my friends who also happen to be some of the best tiers in Colorado. While these flies were tied to use, this box just might be a collectors item, never to be used. Stop by if you are in the area and see what else they have. All the profits go towards conservation, restoration and education programs.
More information: A box filled with several dozen flies tied by some of Colorado’s best tiers. Included in the box are Papa Apes tied by Larry Kingrey, Rojo Midges tied by Greg Garcia, Stuffed Pickles by Carl Pennington, RS2 by Juan Ramirez, and many other patterns from the vise of Ty Clifton, Mark Boname, Rick Takahashi, Ken Walrath, Michael Gula, Dennis Collier, Herman de Gala and more. This is a box that may never get fished as it may be considered a treasure, too nice to use the flies included. If you do choose to use the flies, it will serve you well as these flies are for Colorado or all Western states. Winning bidder also receives one (1) free tying lesson with “Hopper” Juan Ramirez.
