Hi Simmon

 

You may want to Look at Fly Gal, run by April Vokey. April is a very good tyer, she is from BC and fishes for Salmon and Steelhead.

Yes ... and while you're watching some of her tying and fishing videos, be careful you don't fall in love.

I had a look at a few of her tying videos, and good god, she ties as well as she casts!
