Saltwater Flies of the Northeast and Fly Fishing Long Island are two comprehensive studies on the local know how of fly fishing.
For years Angelo Peluso has fished, learned and written about Northeast fly fishing.
We are excited to have him donate each one of his books to the Montauk Fishing Party!
If you have not read his books, you simply have to if you fish, or plan to fish Montauk!
Thanks Angelo!
We are proud to have Glenn Mikkleson join us at the fly tying bench at the Montauk Fishing Party! No matter how hard I try to tie an epoxy that looks good, I will never be able to replicate what Glenn can do with his eyes closed.
“What one finds with a Mikkleson fly is an extraordinary attention to quality. His flies are perfectly balanced, foul resistant and extremely durable. As a commercial fly tier Glen believes strongly in giving his clients a product that will stand the test of many fish. Paraphrasing one of his beliefs, Glen is fond of saying that any fly which falls apart after one fish is poorly designed and poorly tied. While this may seem obvious, low quality flies can easily begin to malfunction in unsuspecting ways that make them ineffective. Fouling is another issue that Glen works hard to prevent in his patterns. His epoxy bait fish designs are some of the most foul resistant in use today.” angelo peluso

Thanks Phill! Sorry you cannot make the party, but I am sure this book will be on the “have to win list”.
Rio Lines has given us some great striper lines for the party’s raffle.
As some of us know you cannot have too many fly lines out in Montauk as they get caught in Props, bitten by bluefish and torn of the backing because of bad knot tying!
So thanks Rio, for some fantastic saltwater fly lines!

Mike Savlen, works from his studio in Costa Rica, and paints passionately. It is evident in his work that he truly loves nature, and masterfully twists his own vision into his subjects.
“ I am constantly inspired by what I experience outdoors. I am an avid hunter and fisherman and proud of it. From beautiful to brutal, hilarious to heartbreaking, I find nature is truth in the purest form. Never asking for praise and having no need for forgiveness.”
We are extremely proud to have him as a sponsor of our party, and are excited to see more of his work.
Thank you for your gift.
The Predator series fly rod is a perfect kayak rod, canoe or pontoon rod. Good for big flies, quick casts….and very great lifting power.
