Here's a shot of my good friends Neil Hutchinson and Ray Gibson, in front of Wendy's booth at the British Fly Fair in Stoke-on-Trent in early November. I've known these guys since I took my first class with Wendy Gibson in 2000.


Welcome to Classic Atlantic Salmon Flies. This is a site that displays my recent work with salmon flies that were originally tied in the 1800's in various spots in the U.K.  I needed a place to point people when they were curious about my fly tying obsession. (That image of a Green Highlander on my PDA just wasn't cutting it anymore, so I decided to put together a web site.)

The site is more or less a photo gallery, where you can see images of my framed flies, as well as some shots of the flies I've mounted in glass domes. I've also included a short history of my fly tying career, as well as some of my favorite fly tying web sites.

What's Going On??!?

I don't always just sit at home and tie flies. Sometimes, I go out and tie flies. Here's a list of some upcoming events. Stop by and say hello!
