PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Well, the Red Lake Fish Out success was less than our normal fish out successes.  From what I heard there was not a trout caught.  So how did we come to select this lake over other place to fish in July.  It was a vote by the board of directors.  If you would to be in on the decision making process or suggest different activities, becoming one of the board of directors is your option.  You do not have to be an A plus fly fisher or an accomplished fly tier.  All you have to have is an opinion, some suggestions and a willingness to serve. 

Our on the water meeting at Mayberry Park went well, we had about twenty members with about a dozen who fished.  Water was a little warm and the wind did not die at dark.  I had some free spools of fluorocarbon to give out which Bud Johnson gave me.  What this spawned was “why do I use fluorocarbon?”  Is it worth the expense?  I was told to use it in the “salt” because it holds up better against the coral abrasion.  I like it especially at Milton Lake and the Little Truckee when I fish over PhD fish.  I don’t use it at Pyramid because I think the fish are not leader shy and it seldom comes in contact with any rocks.  If you get a knot, you need to just cut it out and re-tie.  It also seems to kink and stay kinked, no amount of stretching seems to straighten it.

Aug. General Meeting will be at Mayberry Park starting at 6:30. This will be our Swap Meet and you can bring any sporting goods to sell or trade except firearms or ammunition. Also this will be your opportunity to sign up for the Weber Lake Fish Outing.  We will have twenty spots available.

Welcome to new members Bill McCready and Jeff Dakin.

Twenty club members are invited to come and fish Webber Lake again this year on Friday Sept .24,2010. We will meet at the gate to the lake at 8:00 to 8:30 am.


I would like to invite members from TRFF to fish Webber Lake again.
Traveling from Reno you will go west on hwy 80 to Truckee and exit on hwy 89 (exit after bug station) north towards Sierraville approximately. 17 miles, turn left the sign for Webber Lake Ranch and go about 7 miles west. Turn left at sign for the lake. This will be the 3rd year we have fished here and the fish are still strong and big. Rainbows have been caught this year over 5 pounds. Quite a few members have already fished here this year.


Names of members wanting to attend will be taken starting at the swapmeet in August at Mayberry Park. Releases for the Lake will need to be filled out when you pay the $25 fee (Normal day use fee is $75) to reserve your spot. Releases and money will be taken at the Banquet also. You can contact Jerry Holtgrave at 775-673-2919 for more information.
