About 2 years ago BC (before Covid) CowboyPirate and Cookie graciously provided their garage for a show and tell on Making Fligs. I think we had about a dozen or so potential “fligologists” show up for the session. Since then I have had a few requests to hold another class…and since I got my GoPro camera I have had even more requests to make a video.
I posted up a video last week on “Fligs Catch Fish”…with a lot of fish porn. Since then I have been working on this video for “MAKE YOUR OWN FLIGS”. As with the previous video, I have had to rely on using a lot of photos taken over the years to help put this together. If I had tried to shoot “how to” video of all the different aspects of making fligs it would have become an unendurably lengthy production. The actual video ended up just under 39 minutes…with no popcorn.
Apologies for some of the quality problems in transferring photos to the computer screen and then shooting with the GoPro. But it was about the best I could do with what I have to work with. I think I have at least captured the most important aspects for anyone who wants to venture into “Fligville”.
I really don’t do group sessions anymore. But as more than a few BFTers will verify, I am always willing to do one-on-one classes with any sincere member who really wants to learn any aspect of tackle craft. So, if you are left with unanswered questions…or need up close and personal visual tutoring, let me know and I will try to set up a personal tutorial.
