The Hex Hatch Fly Tying Workshop

June 13, 2024 – 6:00pm-9:00pm, RIDEM DFW Outdoor Education Office

Fee: Free

 

In late June through early August the Wood River experiences one of its most amazing hatches: the Hexagenia Limbata, also known as the burrowing mayfly. This workshop is your chance to learn about the hatch, the different flies that work during the hatch, and how to present the fly for ultimate success. Fly tyers from United Fly Tyers of Rhode Island, Rhody Fly Rodders and Trout Unlimited will be on hand to help tie instruct how to tie the flies. Due to the intricacy of the patterns, some basic knowledge of fly tying is recommended. All equipment and materials are provided. Families with children over 10 are welcome. For more information and registration materials, please contact Kimberly Sullivan, Kimberly.sullivan@dem.ri.gov or 401-330-0634.
