HFF November 2022 Events

The weather is looking good for a week or so of early November fishing. There are rumors of some folks catching Wipers at Lake Monroe. Don’t miss the chance to catch a nice Wiper or two or three or more if you hit a school of 5 pounders. That is something you will not forget!

Given the extremely high chances of rain for tomorrow Nov 5, we are rescheduling the Yellowwood Clean Up.
It is important we remember the rain date is next Saturday, November 12th.  We will be meeting next Saturday at the Yellowwood Lake office parking lot at 10:00. We will be working on clearing up two jetties and some other shoreline to make them more fishing friendly. Many of us know Yellowwood as a favorite local fly fishing site and here is a chance to return the favor. Hope to see you all there this coming Saturday at the park office at 10:00. And BTW bring a rod…

The November 15th meeting again promises to be an exciting and informative event. The main event will be a program focusing on Casting For Recovery.  As always we will have  club news,  a raffle and time allowing, a fly tying demo of some Wiper flies.

Stay tuned for more details of the November 15th meeting. And, by all means try to catch a few Wipers out at Monroe.

See you all on November 12th at Yellowwood and the 15th at the regular meeting. Dinner at 6:00 and program at 7:00.

Tight lines,

Tim

HFF Monthly Meeting September 2022

Hope the summer went well for you and you managed to get out for some successful fishing and perhaps even a little successful catching!

I am sitting here watching the first Thursday Night Football game of the year. I am assuming that indicates that winter is sneaking up on us and it is time to think about storing some of your warm months tackle and equipment. As fate would have it, the September 20 program is all about how to clean and safely store you summer tackle.  However, don’t put at least one rod out of easy reach as the Wiper season is just around the corner and the second part of the program will be a demo of some Wiper flies.

The October 18th meeting will be a presentation about Healing Waters Fly Fishing by Joe Smith. In November we will be having a program featuring Casting for Recovery. Look for more information on both these programs in the near future. In the meantime, a big shout out of thanks to Barbara Hatton for creating  a Hoosier Fly Fishers Facebook page with really nice poster advertising the Healing Waters Fly Fishing Program. Check out the page!!

As always we will open the meeting with a round table discussion and there will be a raffle. It is also time to start thinking about officers for next year. The election will be in November. 

Looking forward to seeing everyone on September 20th.  Dinner at 6:00 and the program at 7:00. Don’t forget to check out the new Hoosier Fly Fishers Facebook page.

See you all on the 20th,

Tim
