For all you anglers and fly shop owners out there, beware, Ashlin's Hell-Raiser is now available through Rainy's Fly Company. Rainy's is one of the top fly distributors in the world and they ONLY use the best hooks and tying material. Ashlin's Hell-Raiser will catch any fish that eats Hellgrammites. It works well with trout, smallmouth & largemouth bass, steelhead, bream, crappie, etc. It is best fished on a dead drift or slow retrieve on the bottom, big fish love it! If you need more info or need to know how to get some, contact Erik Ashlin or ask your local fly shop to start carrying them.

Lookie, lookie who made it on the cover of Grey's Sporting Journal!! Grey's has decided that the Hellraiser deserves a place in there vault. For those that know how to use it, it is one of the deadliest fliies on the market. Go pick some up today and see for yourself!

Happy fishing!........>-<(((((*>

WHAT'S HAPPENING;



2 day fly fishing school!

Oct. 11th - 12th 2013

This is no girl school! If you are looking to improve your trout fishing skills you do not want to miss this! We have 3 of the BEST professional instructors available for this class and space is very limited. Erik Ashlin of EFFC, Kent Klewine of Reel Job Fishing, & Andy Bowen of Cohutta Fishing Company will be the instuctors. Call or email anyone of them to reserve your space.

The streams are looking better than ever with all the rains we have had. The Tick clears up quicker than most and is running at full pool. Lots of good size rainbows are being caught this year. Browns are showing up more this year as well. Most fish are being caught on size 18-22 midge flies. Zebra midges have had the best luck so far. Fish slow and with smaller flies in the winter to catch or hook more fish. If you have the right gear, the cold water and weather is no problem! Have fun on the water!

 Butch Williams of NC tied these beasts for the muskie that hide in the New River. These flies are 12 - 14 inches long so a 10wt rod is a must! Anyone interested in some of these flies or would like to try there luck at some 48 inch muskie, give Erik Ashlin a call to order flies or schedule a time on the New River in Va. Lodging is available! 

 Come and stay on the Tick and enjoy a peacefull night in the new EFFC club house. It will sleep up to six guests and the river is just a short walk through open fields. Contact us for more info or go to the Cabin rentals page for pricing.
