Our speaker for the evening was John Shank, Lone Star Fly Fishing. His subject was “Fly Fishing for Stripers on Canyon Lake”. John’s presentation was informative and gave the club a different aspect of fly fishing.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 pm.
The presentation from John Shank on striper fishing on Canyon Lake and the area, was very informative at least for me. I really did not know that there were so many stripers, and that they were that large. And, they catch them on a fly rod too! If you do not fly fish, they will accommodate you. Great talk and videos.
