HFF October Meeting

All streamers all the time, at least for the fly tying demos this year. The first meeting this year of the HFF will be October 20th at the Colorado Steakhouse, dinner at 6:00 and the program at 7:00.

The flies that will be featured are Al Fish tying a “Schminnow”, Paul Brown tying “Bob Popovic’s Hollow Fleye” and Mike Donavan will tie a “Parmachene Belle Streamer.”  Perhaps even someone else tying something else…

Mike B, Paul B and I fished Fairfax on Saturday. Between us we caught about 20 Wipers, all schoolies, but still Wipers and perhaps even an omen of bigger fish to come…at least we can hope.

And a reminder, dues are due…

See you all at the Colorado Steakhouse on October 20th.

September HFF Meeting

Officially the last unofficial summer meeting of the HFF will be this coming Tuesday, September 15, at the Colorado Steakhouse at 6:00 P.M.  Looking forward to wild tales of successful summer fishing, I for one, need to hear that at least someone had a good summer on the water.

Speaking of water, we sure had more than enough this summer!
Lake Monroe is finally back to regular pool after being up 11.6 feet. I am holding out for good fall Wiper season.

Some news… Streamer patterns will be the featured tying demonstrations this year.

As always, we look for suggestions of patterns you would like to see and certainly looking for anyone who would like to demo their favorite pattern.

The first official meeting will be Tuesday, October 20th. Join us for the fun; dinner at 6:00 P.M. and the program will start at 7:00 P.M. Stay tuned for information about the October program.

Please save Sunday December 13th for our annual Christmas party. The fun will begin at 12:00. Details to follow soon.

Is anyone interest in fly tying classes? Please let me know if you or anyone you know would be interested in either a beginning or advanced classes.

Again, join us on Tuesday September 15 at the Colorado Steakhouse at 6:00 P.M. for the last summer meeting.
