Fly Tying Night

NBFF Fly tying will be this Thursday (April 2nd) from 6-8:00 pm at the Westside Community Center, 2932 South IH 35 Frontage Road, New Braunfels.
This month with the warmer weather coming and with the Club participating in some Bass fishing opportunities I thought we would tie a good Bass catching Fly called the Clouser Minnow.  We will start promptly at 6:00 with a You Tube fly tying skills video and then a video on tying the Clouser Minnow Fly.  The club will supply the needed supplies for tying.  The club also has several sets of tying equipment if you need them or bring your own.
Hope to see you there,
Gary

FLY TYING NIGHT MARCH 5TH

 

MARCH’S FLY TYING CLASS

Our March NBFF fly tying session will be this coming Thursday, March 5th, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at the Westside Community Center, 2932 South IH 35 Frontage Road in New Braunfels.  This month we will be tying a fly called the WD-40 fly that I and several others have had good recent success with for trout on the Guad.  It’s a fairly easy fly to tie with only a few materials needed.  We will start promptly at 6:00 pm with a short skills building You Tube video, then a video of the fly we will be tying that evening.  If you have your own tools, please feel free to bring them and if not, we have several club sets available to use.  The club will also supply the needed tying materials.
Come out and join us and tie a few for yourself and some to be used for the club meeting raffle each month.
Hope to see you there,

Gary

FUN FISH

SPONSORED BY WORD

WATER ORIENTED RECREATIONAL DISTRICT

COMAL COUNTY

The New Braunfels Fly Fishers participated in the annual FUN FISH event hosted by WORD for kids aged 3 to 16.  The kids fun fish day was held February 28th at Canyon Park.  There were 400 registered to participate in the event.  The event gave the kids an opportunity to fish for rainbow trout that had been stocked in a fenced off cove.  There were also two fish ponds for the smaller toddlers that could not walk out on the dock.  The kids could take their catch home for Mom to cook.

New Braunfels Fly Fishers gave the kids an opportunity to cast a fly rod with a felt fly (no hooks).  There were a lot of smiling faces when they were able to get the fly into the hula hoop.  The kids were then given M&Ms and a club logo sticker.  We also had a fly exhibit organized based on the species of fish (thanks to Gruene Outfitters for the exhibit) so the kids could see the different flies.  NBFF was also tying flies so the kids could see how they are tied.

It was a great day seeing the kids having so much fun.

Thanks to WORD for hosting and asking the New Braunfels Fly Fishers for participating.
