It is that time of year that hopper droppers are doing well, and I have been doing well with just about any kind of hopper by itself.

Don’t Miss The FFI Virtual Expo!
Our first-ever Virtual Expo is coming up November 5-7. The FFI Virtual Expo brings all the workshops, experiences, knowledge, and community of our annual Expo to a digital platform.
Over the course of the three-day event you’ll find casting and fly tying demonstrations, conservation presentations, fly fishing skills workshops, discussions on travel and destinations, and so much more. A $25 registration fee grants you access to the Expo, with some workshops requiring an additional fee.
Virtual Expo attendance will be capped at 1,500, so don’t delay in getting your spot reserved. There are also some workshops that start as early as September 6.
Mark your calendars, registration opens Monday, August 16th.
New and exciting features are coming to the popular Fly Casting Skills Challenge, including a new name that more accurately reflects the intention of the program: Fly Casting Skills Development (FCSD).
FCSD will include a new Foundation level for beginners that will prepare them for approaching the Bronze level and beyond. Although the Gold level must still be completed in a single session, the Bronze and Silver levels can be completed in multiple sessions over time. The program will be launched in October. For now, please continue to use the current program that is on our website.
As part of the Fly Fishers International upcoming FFI Virtual Expo this fall, we are proud to announce the first annual FFI Film Competition. We are asking for your creativity, your passion, and your stories. Filmmakers can win great prizes and share their creative vision with a passionate and engaged fly fishing audience.
In keeping with the mission of the FFI to preserve the legacy of fly fishing for all fish in all waters, the objectives of the First Annual FFI Film Competition are to invite and encourage filmmakers of all ages, abilities, and experiences to tell their fly-fishing-related stories through original films. Experienced or novice, young or old, close to home or in exotic locations, all are invited to submit their original films.
Submissions must be in by September 10, 2021. Films can be on any topic such as conservation, education, community, destination, or just a good fishing story. The Film Competition is free to enter and open to the public.
