Fly Tying Expo

A FUNDRAISER FEATURING LOCAL TALENT

SVATU and Laughing Grizzly Fly Shop co-host an annual Fly Tying Expo that features expert tyers from Northern Colorado and throughout the state. This Expo offers the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the tyers where attendees can chat and learn their patterns, tips, and pointers. Attending the Expo is a crash course in upping your tying skills.

The Fly Tying Expo is a fundraiser to support the Chapter’s work and outreach. The event also features fly raffles and a silent auction including trips and fishing related items. Flies tied at the event are donated by the tyers for raffle to the attendees. Fundraising proceeds go to:

  • Youth programming that introduces kids to fly fishing and healthy watersheds;

  • St. Vrain Creek habitat improvement and restoration; and

  • Educating our community on the value of healthy streams and trout habitat.
