DONATION is only $10 dollars(kids free!!!) and that goes to defraying the cost of food. Did I say food?????  That’s right, hotdogs, baked beans, chips and soft  drink of your choice.

After lunch, we will be available to assist you with your casting needs right next to the pavilion.  Please bring you own rods and reels, but if you don’t have any, we have a limited number that you can practice with.

Please let us know if you are coming by responding with the contact us on our webpage or calling or emailing Mike Wright at 951-805-9713 or mikewright2m@mac.com  Please provide us with  your name, phone # and email address.

This is a great opportunity to learn and review the key elements of fly fishing and get some good advice from experienced club members.

We look forward to seeing you all at Cypress Bend 503 PEACE AVENUE IN NEW BRAUNFELS on the 21st of April.
