Course Number & Title: 407 Tying the Life Cycle of the Midge
Presenter: Richard Rohrbaugh
Description: Learning the whole life cycle for each hatch we fish is a great way to expand angling opportunity. People know there is a PMD hatch coming, so they buy or tie a PMD pattern and go fishing. But on many hatches, the fish key selectively on the separate hatch stages as each one emerges and that means it is often possible to follow the fish through each stage of a hatch if the angler is prepared with the needed patterns. In this workshop (for lake anglers), we will tie and discuss tactics for each stage in the life cycle of the midge.

Course Number & Title: 526 Complete Callibaetis
Presenter: Phil Rowley
Description: Mayflies are not the dominate food source in lakes, but in waters they do inhabit, they tend to do so in huge numbers. Callibaetis are the most important and widespread mayfly found in productive western stillwaters. They provide fly fishers with the opportunity to target trout using a variety of patterns to match the various stages trout feed upon, nymphs, emergers, duns, and spinners. At times, the surface activity of trout feeding on duns and spinners can be outstanding. Join author, guide, and stillwater addict, Phil Rowley, as he shows you a cross section of his favorite Callibaetis patterns developed from his over 35 years on the water. Phil will be providing detailed on-camera tying instruction as well as weaving in his favorite presentation tactics for each pattern. Pattern recipes and materials listing will also be provided.
