As the striper run here in Maine is starting to heat up, we have another great fly tying tutorial for you to make sure that you make the most out of your season. This time, we are joined by none other than Joe Cordeiro. Joe is a long time angler, guide, and fly tyer who resides on the Massachusetts coast. He has helped revolutionize tying with flatwing feathers and has created many great flies that work well for stripers anywhere during the run. This Flat Mack being one of them. If you want to catch more stripers this summer, be sure to have some of Joe's patterns in your box!

We want to send our deepest thanks to Joe and his son Greg for joining us for an afternoon of tying and hanging around the shop! You can find them both on social media and at flat-wing.com.
