We will have fly tying, fly casting and knot tying displays and demonstrations at our tables and hands on for a few of those wanting a little TLC as time, crowds and space allow.

Tuesday May 21 General Meeting 6-8 at the Mountain View Barn.
Our presentations will include our work underway with the City of Twin Falls Parks & Recreation. This includes our proposed use of the former C S I fish hatchery and property for both a kids fishing pond and future uses of the now closed hatchery for educational and other community purposes rather than being demolished.
Our documentation also details our larger, long standing, interests in restoration of Rock Creek for all fisheries, fishing and recreational purposes over its length from Magic Mountain to the Snake. These cover the many aspects of restoration and the ways MVFF feels these will benefit this important local stream and the County and City in the years ahead.
Other presentations will update you on our upcoming activities including fish-outs, meetings and summer schedule as well as plans for next fall now being formulated. Please try to attend as this is now our last General Meeting of the spring and we always need to hear your feedback and who can help make these meetings successful.
Saturday May 25 Fishout is now scheduled for Roseworth Reservoir (also called Cedar Creek). It is west, about 8 miles, from the Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir Dam on the road across the dam, & about 15 miles out of Rogerson. Reports are lots of fish, good pontoon and float tubing, wading+/-, and boat fishing with space both sides of the main launch ramp at the house to fish, launch & set up our base camp Saturday morning with hotdogs at lunch.
