Lefty Kreh’s Tie Fest
The oldest, largest and best fly fishing show in Maryland.

A real “grassroots” fly fishing show
You don’t have to blowout someone else’s candle to make yours shine brighter
Lefty Kreh’s spirit lives on through the many people he mentored. This show is our way of giving back
Fly Shops

Social Media Testimonials
Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our attendees say:
My first tie fest…Walked into Joe Cap welcoming me, turned around and bumped into legendary Mr. Bob Clouser. Then signed a birthday card for one of our National Treasures Lefy Kreh, then filled out an application to win a beautiful fishing kayak. All before leaving the lobby! Then lots of great exhibitors, will be back next year!
William Nelson
A great event! Got to talk to a number of innovative tiers and vendors. Plenty to see and do – if my schedule allowed it would have liked to take advantage of Bob Clouser’s casting clinic. Nice to see that Fur & Feathers have a strong following here in the Chesapeake area!
Chris Pinzone
Last year there were so many interesting people, vendors and classes offered at the show. This year it will be even bigger and better at new larger venue. I am looking forward to the weekend.
