HOT OFF THE TEXTS

Our long time member Dale Quigley is excited to come & give us a presentation after just returning from an extended trip to Alaska.

His program is “The Art & Science of Swinging Flies & Catching Alaskan Sockeye Salmon (Reds) and includes classic spey presentation tackle props and examples to see, feel & study.” This will be fun & informative with many concepts that cross over to trout spey.

This is a show you surely do not want to miss!!! Dale’s show starts at 7:00.

This October 20 meeting will bring us into our next new "back to the future" phase and get us enjoying the fall fly fishing fun that the cooler weather is sure to bring. We may? have casting on the lawn as the wind permits with tying demonstrations in the Barn before we start at 5 with a lot to cover.

Please register now so you'll be sure to get some yummy fajitas for dinner!

We also need everyone to fill out a new info sheet as you come in so we can have everyone's info with mailing and street address to mail your membership cards to when you join or renew and to plot our members on our new club map to show us all how close together we all are here in the Magic Valley.

You can then look over raffle items and buy tickets to win them as well as buy a chance at the 50/50 raffle where the winner gets 1/2 the pot and MVFF gets the other 1/2! There may be a silent auction item or two for your bidding pleasure!

At 5:00 sharp we begin with Guests, New & Returning Member introductions & quick bio's & fly fishing tales from all while our tiers are showing their craft and talk us through a few.

New groups that are forming will then give where they're headed and how and ask for your comments and help. Leading off will be our Fishmaster Fred telling you about The Sat. Oct 24 fishout he has organized to get us all out fishing together again!!! It & the Nov. Big Wood Fishout will be posted in the fishout forum too as details evolve.

Please note too that all groups are active now in the Members Only Forums (Log in) Section as another reason to be a paid, active member.

6:15 is our dinner break featuring Nina's Fantastic Fajita Buffet & goodies.

At 7:00, as we are finishing dinner, Dale begins his show to 7:30 as outlined above followed by Q & A and then we have our raffle drawings with more quality time together before we close at 8:00 to 8:30.

Please note that we are accepting paid member volunteers for our board up to our Nov. 3 Board meeting with the election at the Tue Nov 17 General Meeting.

Watch here as the new details are added .

Thank you. See you at the Barn.
