The prestigious award honours the exceptional international contribution Barry has made to the world of fly tying with his innovative approach of linking his clear step-by-step tying instructions in book-form to his popular YouTube channel ‘The Feather Bender’ videos which then show him tying EXACTLY the same fly online. This ground-breaking ‘pairing’ is a first in the world of fly tying instruction. A renowned photographer in his own right, his tying images are crystal clear, minimalist and stylish. His approachable attitude and innovative tying techniques have encouraged thousands of beginners to take up the hobby in the first place or more experienced tyers to up their game.

Good luck 😉 More pictures please!
Hope you both have a great weekend. Yes Marc can tie a good, fly and knows how to fish it, but above all he is a consummate gentleman.
Ask him to tell you about the Duck on the Yorkshire Calder!
