November 27th Meeting Speakers

Our November meeting will be held on the Tuesday, November 27th, at 7:00 pm at the New Braunfels Public Library.  Our speakers for the evening will be Chase Smith and Robby Hensley. Their presentation will cover a low-budget trip to Baja, Mexico to target Roosterfish in the surf.

A quote from Michael Aldridge, Education Chair for Texas Council FFI and Outings Director, Hill Country Fly Fishers, from an email response to my request for him to speak (He was busy):

  “There are a couple of young, incredible fly anglers here with the Hill Country Fly Fishers club that might be able to help with a presentation if you’re still looking for a speaker on November 27.  They are Chase Smith and Robert Hensley.  The second to last Drake Magazine mentions them both as winners of the last two “Escarpment” carp tournaments.  Chase ties some of the best articulated flies, “game changers,” I’ve ever seen! Both are wonderful young men who’ve done more with a fly rod in one year than most have in a lifetime!  From the Texas Hill Country to CO/NM to Baja.”  

Hope to see you all there!!
