2023 Holdover Tournament
The 2023 Holdover Tournament will be held on November 4th. This tournament funds the New Braunfels Fly Fishers club for the year. This enables the club to pay speakers for our monthly meeting, support GRTU Youth Trout Camp with gift bags and other endeavors throughout the year. The catch results are provided to TPWD for their use in determining the health of the fishery.
Please consider participating this year and support our club. The prizes last year included a ½ day float trip for 2, a $75 gift certificate, multiple $50 gift certificates, multiple $25 gift certificates and a table full of gear and this year should be no different. It is a fun time and everyone goes home with a prize or prizes. The entry fee is $75 to wade and $200 to float.
Contact Ron DeMeyer by text 830.481.3405 or contact Chris Jackson at Action Angler Fly Shop after he returns from Colorado in October.
You will get a prize and lunch. This has always been a great time, and if you are new to the GRTU LAP program, or just new to the river, this is a great way to find the best place’s to fish and learn the river. Our club members like to help you find good spots to fish and advice on fly’s that work different times of the year. So come on out and do some fishing for fun!
You do NOT need to be a club member or a GRTU member to participate.
SEPTEMBER FLY FISHING REPORT
- SEPTEMBER FLY FISHING REPORT
————————————————————
To all who’ve recently subscribed to our newsletter: Thank you for joining!
It has been a great summer for fly fishing. The temperatures are about to drop as the fall season approaches. The changing seasons will increase different bug hatches. The fish bite will also increase as we get closer to the brown trout spawn. The annual rainbow trout stocking has already occurred on the Gunnison river. Some cooler temps and cloud cover should make for some great streamer fishing. September is a great time to book a Colorado trip to experience some epic dry fly fishing.
It’s also a good time to reserve your dates for fall and winter in Texas. We’ll be targeting bass through October and November, then trout late November through April. Check out https://actionangler.us2.list-
Thank you for supporting our small business. We hope everyone is safe and healthy.
Sincerely,
Chris Jackson Owner/Lead Guide
