President's Message

Greetings and thanks to the other 26 people that fished the Terry Barron Memorial Fish Out at Pyramid Lake. What I mean is the 26 members who came out and did not catch a
fish just like me! What a great opportunity to win a new rod and reel. The other four who did catch a fish had a 1 in 4 chance of taking home the rod and reel! Congratulations to
Jerry Holtgrave who caught a 21 ¾ inch fish to win. We gathered under the tent at Crosby’s Lodge, and it was nice to just come in sit down and start eating and not have to set up and break down. We were back on the water in record time. Thanks to Reva Crump, Ralph Phenix, Alex Penney, and Mark Warren for doing the cooking, and special thanks to Elliott Gritton for the great box of flies in the raffle.


Since the beginning of the year we have had a lot of new members join our club. We, as existing members need to welcome these new fly fishers into our ranks and help them
assimilate into the club. Experienced members can be intimidating to those that are new to the area or beginners. I know that we all like to talk to each other and exchange stories, and it can be uncomfortable for a new member to just stand and listen without feeling like an outsider. We are all members of the same club.

New members - this club is what you make it, most of us are happy to share information on just about anything to do with fly fishing, and then some……just ask.

On May 20th we have a fish outing at Frenchman Lake. The lake has been fishing well all Spring and some have opted out of the Pyramid chuck and duck for the more willing fish at Frenchman.

Welcome to new member Frank Jack.

See you all at Frenchman Lake!
