It was late September that Secretary Dale opened the
Walla² Fly Fishers email, and found an invitation from the newly organized Walla Walla Valley Trout Unlimited Chapter to come to their next meeting.
Dale contacted their chapter President Angela Williams and asked for details, and thereafter began making plans to attend the October 4th meeting – this was the Chapter’s sixth organizational meeting.
At this meeting Dale was asked if he thought the Walla²
Fly Fishers would like to share our knowledge of fly fishing with this TU
group. Dale says “YES”, as many TU organizations are made up of fly fishers,
and in many cases the local fly fishing club and the TU chapter are one and the
same, or work very closely with each other in their pursuit of enhancing wild
cold water fisheries. Dale was then asked if he could coordinate with the Walla²
Fly Fishers to have a fly tying evening with the membership of the Walla Walla
Valley Trout Unlimited Chapter at their next meeting on November 1st?
Dale checked his schedule and made an email announcement to the Walla² Fly Fishers
of this event to take place, and for all to participate that would like to,
whether a TU member or not.
So the evening of November 1st club
members Dale and Heidi (a TU member as well) met with the TU Chapter at the
Walla Walla Eagles club for a most enjoyable evening of fly tying.
"A Picture is worth a Thousand Words"; so these
pictures will tell the story of our evening as the group ties Woolly Bugger flies-- plain and bead headed.
