| United Fly Tyers of Rhode Island is an educational
organization. Its members are dedicated to the teaching and the learning
of the tying arts and the application of those arts to fishing in Rhode
Island waters and beyond.
John O'Meara runs a monthly fly tying program for juniors from 10 to 16 years old (October through March), which concludes with their own fly tying symposium--and a day on a pond where, besides tying flies, they learn to recognize some insects and to fly fish with Ed Lombardo. We also have tying tables at several local fly tying shows. And in 2003 we held a Fly Tying Symposium and Show featuring 30 fly tyers, along with vendors and guides at the Crown Plaza in Warwick, RI. Monthly meetings
are held at 6:30 pm on the First Wednesday of every
month, from September through May, at The Impossible
Dream. Directions | |
