February 11

Well winter is set in and it's set in hard.  There won't be much fly fishing to be done locally for a while but at least we've still got tying and beer.  Come out of the cold and hang out with us at Galway Bay on Monday February 11.  We'll be there no matter what the weather!  Join us for some fishy conversation some good beers (and/ or cheap whiskey) and maybe get a few flies tied up for the spring that will be here sooner than you think!  

We'll see you there!!

Happy New Year friends!  And welcome to another year of Chi Tie.  We'll be back at Galway Bay on Monday the 14th in our usual spot at the back bar.  Whether you're fishing early season trout, winter steelhead, or just prepping boxes for the spring it's a great time to get a few flies tied, have a few drinks and hang out with good people.  Everyone (21+) is always welcome and we hope to see you there.

Cheers!
