March 2019 HFF Meeting

The next meeting of the HFF will be March 19th at the Red Lobster. As usual we will meet at 6:00 PM for dinner and the program will begin at 7:00 PM. Our program this month will be a presentation by Dr. Ranjan Muthukrishnan on invasive aquatic species. I am sure this is an important and relevant topic for those of us who use and enjoy the outdoors. If time allows after the discussion, we will have a tying demonstration.

The April meeting will be at another new site, the Bloomington West Side American Legion. The program will be the annual auction. We ask the members to bring fishing/outdoor activities related items for the auction. Once again, we will have the pleasure of watching and listening to our own Kevin Montague show off his auctioneer skills.

The May meeting will be the annual Hoosier Fly Fishers picnic. Again, we thank the Clarke’s for their generous offer of their lakeside home for the picnic site. The tentative date is May 4th. Details and directions to follow. By all means bring a fly rod! I am including a picture of a typical Lake Lemon Bluegill.
See you at the Red Lobster on the 19th.

January 2019

I hope you all have managed  survive the first thing that really looked like winter this yea the past day or so.

Save the evening of January 22nd for our last HFF meeting at the Colorado Steakhouse. Unfortunately, they are closing on January 31st.  We will really miss this venue. As always eat at 6PM meeting at 7PM.

We are searching for a new venue and will let everyone know as soon as we have settled this.  As always, we are open to your suggestions.

So, in remembrance of the good times we have had there, as previously announced, we will be featuring  some programs from the past. Dick Powell, Mike Donovan, and Barry Clarke will be tying flies. In addition , Kevin Montague will be holding a 3 or 4 item MINI auction, this is just so we can remember his dulcet voice and fast talking skills. No need to bring any items, I will cover this…however, bring some money… Don’t worry, Kevin will be back for the official full fledged auction later this year.

And, if that is not enough, and if I can figure out the technical issues, a brief (three minute) movie, A Summer on Clear Creek, put together by Paul Brown and me a few years ago.
