Hi,

Does anyone know about any fly tying classes for beginners in NYC?

Thanks!

Kurt Huhner would know. He teaches, but I'm not sure if he teaches in NYC.

You can contact him here: NYC Trout Bums - Practice Catch & Release!

Thanks Randy. I taught for 3 years or so for EJTU, but havent been able to return due to housing situations, which will be remidied shortly (approx 4-6 weeks).

Anywho....once I'm back I dont mind meeting you and giving you some free help. Cosi on Upper West side is ideal for me. They have a large seating area in the back.

Let me know if you are interested. If we can gather some more interest, maybe we can make it a regular thing....

I took classes at the Urban Angler with Jon Fisher and Ed.... back in 2001. The rest is history.

I'm planning on tying Thursday night at Cosi on the upper west side starting at 630 PM:

Cosi
2186 Broadway (77th and 78th)
New York, NY 10024
(212) 595-2016

In the back of the restaurant, there are several tables available that we can tie on. I'll be tying hendricksons and march browns.

All skill levels invited so feel free to drop by.

Any questions reply or PM me.

I took classes from Urban Angler last year. I would reccomend them very highly. The guy came to my apartment with all the gear so i didn't even have to go to the store.

Damn, I'd love to go to that but I'll be in the Smoky Mountain backcountry by then. If this happens again I'd be very interested in attending.

Kurt,

I wish I could come and watch, but I have to work.
