www.saltyflytying.com is a vehicle for sharing ideas on saltwater pattern development as well as a clear, easy to follow educational resource for tyers of all skill levels. There is no shortage of "How To's" available out there, but they all seem to focus on learning to tie a particular fly for a particular fishing situation. I want to dive much deeper than "how to tie this pattern or that pattern." My focus is really directed toward developing new saltwater fly patterns, and learning how to correct or improve the flies that just don't seem to act right in the water. The aim is to teach fly tiers how to effectively mimic the shape, size, color, and specific movements of saltwater prey items and learn which materials will best achieve these characteristics. Knowing how to select the right materials and learning proper tying techniques is key to creating productive saltwater flies.
