For 2025 we will be offering two fly fishing workshops and three 2+ hour tying workshops. All Workshops will be held at the Oasis Conference Center in Loveland, Ohio, the site of the 2025 Greater Cincinnati Fly Fishing Show.

For all tying workshops, you must provide your own vise, tying tools, and light if you want to use one. All tying materials including threads will be provided.

For the fly fishing workshops there will be hands-on learning for rigging and building custom leaders. Materials will be provided for the program, but attendees should bring a rod for casting practice on the indoor casting pond or outdoors if weather is cooperative.

You must arrive in time to get set up and be ready to tie at least 5 minutes prior to the start of the workshop. To participate in the Tying Workshops, you must be a reasonably competent tyer, having completed the equivalent of a Beginner fly tying class and have continued to tie flies since that class.

Tying workshops will all be held in Oasis Room Sandalwood C (the "Presentations Room" on the Show floor layout).

The fly fishing workshops are limited to 10 participants. All tying workshops will be limited to 24 participants.
