We’re back. It’s been a few years but we’re excited to start sharing some new patterns and tiers in full HD resolution and with more camera angles. Learn more about 4K ad-free options on the website.
First up is one of our favorite tiers: Dandy Reiner. Dandy owns Hatch Finders Fly shop in Livingston, MT. She learned the art of fly tying from her father Dean, another of our favorites. Today she is tying a Caddis Soft Hackle for us.

Great dropper pattern and very effective. A simple pattern and easy to tie.
