NEW BRAUNFELS FLY FISHERS FISH THE SAN MARCOS RIVER WITH FREEDOM ON THE FLY

The NBFF was invited by Sam Godfrey of Freedom on the Fly to visit their location on the San Marcos River on April 3rd to fish the river and/or the 3 acre stocked pond on the property.  Eight members took advantage of the invitation with five fishing the river from kayaks, one wading the river and two fishing the pond. The day was topped off with a hotdog lunch provided by Freedom on the Fly with Sam at the griddle. Thanks to Gar Garcia for leading the group on the river.

Note:  Mike Maresh, Freedom on the Fly, caught the beautiful cichlid

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
