Next month the Contraband Fly Casters of Lake Charles will host their annual expo, and plan to make it the biggest one in many years. Headlining the event is Pat Cohen, one of the most recognized names in fly tying, and a master of deer hair flies.
In addition to Pat, some of the top fly tiers in the Gulf Coast region will be demonstrating their favorite patterns - including nationally-recognized realistic tier Fred Hannie. Several of the region's top fly casting instructors - such as Jay Clark and Jeff Ferguson - will be on hand to give casting sessions and instruction. There's also a number of programs covering everything from fishing South Louisiana waters to fishing the Texas Hill Country.
Exhibitors and vendors will also be present. There are raffles and silent auctions to benefit Project Healing Waters and Reel Recovery.
The Contraband club has put out an Expo booklet with schedule of activities, speaker bios, list of tiers, and much more. The booklet is available online - click here to open.
