John Briggs’ Flyfisher

Author: David

John Briggs works on Flyfisher in his Michigan shop. John started his Flyfisher at the 2006 Woodenboat School in Maine. He transported the almost completed boat back to Michigan to finish her out in his shop. He’s added the false stem and several coats of epoxy and is now ready to do the final sanding and put the finish on. John thinks he’ll just varnish his Flyfisher as he like the natural wood color.
