Saturday, February 29th Fly Tying Demo with Grant Bench

Grant Bench

A Utah native, Grant has guided rivers, lakes, and streams of the Uinta Mountains south slope for 15 years. He prefers the solitude and serenity of high elevation lakes for his own personal pursuits and sometimes takes his two kids, Stella, and Grant Yuriy (G2), or his wife, Holly, along. Spending his winter months in a “feather den”, he enjoys learning new techniques to broaden the fly tying skill set. When he’s not tying, he’s chasing exotic pheasants, upland game, or waterfowl on “feather ventures” across Utah and Southern Idaho. Grant considers himself extremely fortunate to have learned from some of the best tiers and mentors  ever to have picked up a bobbin holder and thread. He also enjoys reading, writing, and arithmetic.  Through using arithmetic he calculates that this will be his first fly tying demo at Jimmy’s.

Grant’s demo concludes our 2019-2020 Saturday fly tying demo season.  We will begin our 2020-2021 fly tying demo season in November of this year. We look forward to presenting another array of accomplished fly tiers within it.
