It’s been a fun summer of filling some fly tying orders, both for individuals as well as TCO Fly Shop – State College.

From the Vice: Mid-January
We’ve had some cold temperatures here in Central PA, which means it’s a great time to be sitting down at the vice and tying up some patterns for spring. (Don’t get me wrong, winter is one of my favorite times to be on the water, but not when it’s in the teens with a colder wind chill…)

Next Thursday, August 15, I will be hosting a “Trout Streamers”-themed TCO Fly Shop Brew ‘N’ Bugs event at Axemann Brewery in Bellefonte. The event will be held from 6-8pm, and we’ll be tying up a few of my favorite streamers for this area (though these are “trout streamers,” they’ll work for bass as well).

Hello there, it’s been awhile! Here’s what’s been coming “From the Vice” over the past few months – it’s not been a whole lot because of life happening (and a great new job beginning!).
Friday Five: 5/18/18
Last week was a bit heavy on the video end of things, so we’ve tried to balance it out more this week. We have a few articles, the newest issue of S.C.O.F. magazine, and some videos for you to enjoy. Grab your cup of coffee, get comfortable, and dig in!
Friday Five: 5/4/2018
Bugs are popping, and I hope you have some time to get out on the water this weekend. Until then, you can fish vicariously through these articles and patterns that we have for you. Just pour yourself a coffee!
By the way, it’s International Star Wars day: May the Fourth be with you.
From the Vice: March 2018
March came in like a lion, and isn’t quite going out like a lamb. Maybe “out like a lion cub” is more appropriate? Anyway, it was a fun month at the vice to be tying up some new and old patterns for the boxes. Read on!
