This meeting will include a short business meeting followed by small group fly tying like we did at our May meeting. After our business agenda, we'll gather in small groups with each group led by a member who will tie a specific fly and proceed at a pace conducive to beginners or those looking to hone a specific skill set. The club will support with some materials, vises and tools.
Casting weather should be good as a cool front is expected to pass Monday morning. Casting practice will begin at 5:30pm behind the library.

For September, we will tie a modified version of Terry and Roxanne Wilson's famous Bluegill Bully Spider. This version was first tied by A.J. Rosenbohm, President of the FFI Gulf Coast Council. Bill Morrison and Jim Johnson did well with this fly while fishing in New Orleans City Park for the Rio Grande Cichlid.
This is an easy and effective fly to tie, suitable for both beginners and advanced tiers. All materials other than thread will be provided, and we have several sets of tools for beginners to use during the session.
