Fly Tying Zone by Dave Hise

🎣 Welcome to Fly Tying Zone with Dave Hise!

Whether you're new to fly tying or have years at the vise, you'll find step-by-step tutorials, fly fishing tips, and innovative fly patterns designed to help you catch more fish.

Join me as I tie semi-realistic and realistic flies, including mayflies, caddisflies, stoneflies, midges, nymphs, larva, emergers, streamers, terrestrials, and mouse patterns. My goal is to share techniques, materials, and fly design concepts that make you a better fly tyer and angler.

My fly tying and fly fishing journey began at age 14 and has grown into a passion spanning more than 45 years. I've guided anglers for close to 35 years, as well.

I have been a fly designer for Fulling Mill, Orvis, and Montana Fly Company since 1996. In 2005, I was honored as Orvis Fly Tyer of the Year and was a finalist for Orvis Endorsed Guide of the Year in 2011, 2012, and 2013.
