Minutes of NBFF Membership Meeting
12/14/2022 – New Braunfels Public Library
Dan Cone called the meeting to order at 7:10 pm at the New Braunfels Public Library.
Gary Nyland was happy to report that he had nine members attend the last fly tying meeting. The next meeting is scheduled for January 5th and will cover dubbing and tying a fly that requires dubbing.
Ron DeMeyer reported the outing to Castell was a success with 10 members making the trip. Morgan Ferry was the top angler for the day. The burgers were good, as always, and the beer was cold.
Morgan Ferry has set up an Instagram account for the club and is looking at possible improvements to our face book page.
Ron said the accessories that were ordered for the GRTU Youth Camp gift bags had just arrived. Also, he said that the response from the members for flies to include in the bag had been really good with lots of flies donated.
Ron also brought up Troutfest Texas 2023 scheduled for February 17 – 19 and wanted to know if the club wanted to do the same this time as years past. It was decided to stay with what we have done in the past.
Dan Cone was our guest speaker. His subject for the evening was “Nymphing the Guadalupe” but morphed into fly fishing techniques in general and tips on how to improve your skills. It was informative and entertaining.
Dan adjourned the meeting at 8:50 pm.
