Jonathan from Fly Skinz, The Fly Fishing Show Atlanta 2018

Jonathan at Fly Skinz was kind enough to demonstrate tying a floating crab fly using his Exo Skin and Crab Bits materials. A quick tie and an awesome looking pattern. I can't wait to tie a bunch when I get home!!!

Tenkara USA, The Fly Fishing Show Atlanta 2018

If you remember the Suburban Angler Giveaway last year, the folks from Tenkara USA were kind enough to donate one of their rod packages. So glad that today I had the opportunity to thank Daniel in person! Their podcast released an episode last night all about Tenkara fishing for panfish with @panfish_on_the_fly! I'll be listening to that on the drive back to Florida!!
