My name is Remington Allred, and I’m from Shoshone, Idaho. I’ve never subscribed to the idea that fly fishing is for trout only, and my tying style shows precisely that. I consider myself more accomplished as a fly tier, but even tiers must get out and test flies!
I’ve been fly fishing since I was 7-8 and have been dedicated to tying since 2010. My tying style is… big flies. I love the process of building out a silhouette of the forage I’m imitating. Gunnar Brammer, Kelly Galloup, and Blane Chocklett heavily inspire me. Those guys were instrumental in my learning new methodologies, and I could never thank them enough.
I target smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, and carp locally. My latest obsession has been carp on the fly - it scratches that saltwater itch while being much closer to home. Carp are technically demanding and the best freshwater fish to hone your ability for accurate casts and learn to fight a big fish. I make at least one trip every other year to Florida because I love flying and fishing the salt. It’s my kind of fish; every other fish out there wants to eat something half its size, and more importantly, my kind of fly tying!
