This evening it was discussed making a change in our meetings location, maybe a location at not so large a room and with better acoustics. This topic will be continued to a later meeting after a survey of locations has been made. Do you have any suggestions?
4-H Super Saturday – March 23rd. Tom said that he would take the lead role for fly casting instructions, and Diane said that she would take the lead role for demonstrating fly tying. All of those interested in helping with this event please contact Tom. This event will again be taking place at the Blue Mountain Community Church 928 Sturm Ave, Walla Walla, WA.
Our fly fishing program presentation this evening was a real treat. It was comprised a video presentation of the fly fishing excursions of fellow club members Robin and Daniel Biggs.
Daniel has recently become more and more involved with producing videos for TV presentations, documentaries and fly fishing excursions.
Tonight Robin and Daniel took us to 6
nearby Oregon – Washington fly fishing locations and shared with on screen
photos and video presentations, with descriptions of what you can find there.
Of these there was: Strawberry Lake (needing a backpack float
tubes), John Day River (near Service Creek, Oregon), Willow Lake (off of I-84),
and Dusty Lake (Quincy Wildlife Area), and a few more that Daniel would
prefer to share only by “just word of mouth”.
Many of these locations are stocked
annually or more often, for everyone’s fishing enjoyment. Follow the links
below for maps to and description of the locations mentioned in this evening presentation.
