Walla² Fly Fishers on the lawn and at the tables

With the streams of our area swollen with spring runoff, waters too fast to swing a fly; the Walla² Fly Fishers came together this Saturday afternoon at the 1st Presbyterian Church of College Place, WA. With the beautiful weather we are having it made a great get together of fly tying and lawn fly casting practice.

Everyone felt that it was a beneficial meeting for all. We had 18 in attendance for this meeting. It gave all of those attending a chance to get to know each other as our group continues to form.

From this meeting there were no minutes, no procedures, just a matter of our club getting to share our skills, knowledge of the art of fly fishing with the local community.

Streamside thoughts...

Game fish are too valuable to be caught only once.

The true fisherman approaches the first day of fishing with all the sense of wonder and awe of a child approaching Christmas.
- John D. Voelker

I doubt if I shall ever outgrow the excitement bordering on panic which I feel the instant I know I have a strong, unmanageable fish, be it brook trout, brown trout, cutthroat, steelhead, or salmon on my line.

“I fish because I love to. Because I love the environs where trout are found, which are invariably beautiful... Because in the woods I can find solitude without loneliness. ... And finally, not because I regard fishing as being so terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant and not nearly so much fun.”
- Robert Traver

... tis not all of fishing to fish.
