I hope you have had a chance to enjoy this weather in somewhere with air conditioning.  We seem to have a summer of too much rain or too much heat. I hope you have had a chance to fish when the water and weather agree it would be OK.

The next meeting of the HFF will be July 21st. Again, we will meet at the American Legion on 3rd street. The meeting will start with dinner at 6:00 and the program at 7:00.  

 

The program this month will be a “Summer Reading List”. We will present a number of books on both tying techniques and various fishing adventures.  I am interested in comparing books on technique with what we can now watch on line. For example I am holding Charlie Craven’s Basic Fly Tying published in 2008 and comparing it to my experiences with the Clarlie’s Fly Box videos I watch these days.  There are also books about  fishing stuff by the likes of John Gierach that take us on some fun fishing related adventures.  We look forward to your input in this summer reading trip.

 

We will be treated to a fly tying demo by Elizabeth. I really look forward to watching her tie. We can learn a lot from books but nothing is better than watching a tier in real time with the chance to ask questions.

 

Looking forward to seeing you all on the 21st at the HFF meeting. Dinner at 6:00 and the program at 7:00. Please be careful with this heat

 

Stay cool,

 

Tim
