November Meeting: Hoosier Fly Fishers will again meet at the American Legion Post in Bloomington for the monthly meeting on Tuesday Nov. 21st, 6PM for diner and 7PM for the meeting. The program this month will concern “Tips and Tricks” for fly tying. Most of us have found a little trick or two that help our tying. These are often things not exactly found in a book or video but evolve at the bench. We will be sharing some of these and demonstrating at the vice. There will be room behind my vice if you want to sit down and share a tip of your own.
Once again as per the constitution, we will hold the election of officers at this meeting. There will be a slate of officers put fourth. However, nominations from the floor are open. The elected officers will take office at the Christmas meeting.
Hoosier Fly Fishers monthly meetings are open to the public, now is a good time to join us for the coming year. Dues are due now, see Barbara Hatton at the Nov. meeting to sign up or pay annual dues. Looking forward to seeing you all on the 21st, TimM
HFF Christmas Party:The Hoosier Fly Fishers Christmas Party for Club members will be December 10th at 11:30AM and will be at the Red Lobster in Bloomington again this year. Each club member and their significant other will receive a $25 certificate for the meal. As always, this does not include adult beverages. It is very important that you let Barbara Hatton <barbara.hatton@hotmail.com> know how many of you are planning to attend. We need a good head count so please let Barb know at the November meeting or drop her a note.
The Christmas raffle prize this year will be a Moon Shine 9’, 5 wt. rod with an extra tip, a hard case and a reel with line. As an added bonus there will also be a canteen. I can think of a time or two when the extra tip would have saved the day.

Stay warm or cool, whatever Indiana weather demands today…
