The last Master's of the Fly show for 2024 featured Blane Chocklett. Blane discussed his history in fly fishing, guiding, and fly design. One of his first flies that became really put him on the map was the
Gummy Minnow (below). Since then he has introduced numerous flies such as the Game, Feather, and
Jerk Changers which have been popular with tyers and anglers alike. He was also the first to really introduce and use the metal shanks to tie on rather then a mono extension. Chocklett now offers those materials and flies at his store, The Chocklett Factory, HERE.
