Lesson 1 - “What is in my fly box” with Jesse Males
There is no doubt that fly tying is an art form that can be simple and messy or as complicated as “rocket surgery” hahahaha. That being said, we are happy to present a 12 part series with patented fly tyer Jesse Males as he walks us through the steps to tie all the flies in his own personal inshore saltwater fly box.
Lesson #1 of 12 is a simple baitfish pattern that has a wide range of applications for inshore saltwater use. Tarpon, redfish, snook, sea trout…you name it…this dude can catch it.
