Chris Reeves

I have been tying flies for over 40 years, originally in the deluded belief that it would save money. I have dabbled in commercial and production tying but it is not for me. I love tying new patterns and adapting old ones. I am proud that I can turn my hand to almost any style of fly. My favourite patterns to tie and fish with are hackled wet flies such as the Irish Mayflies, Dabblers and Bumbles. I am also very active member and General Secretary of The Fly Dressers' Guild which promotes and encourages the art of fly dressing or fly tying.
