August 26th meeting and September 20th meeting
This is a reminder that our August’s club meeting will be on the river Saturday the 26th at 8:00 AM. Location is River Acres Park, 501 Fair Ln, New Braunfels just off E. Commons. We met here last summer.
There will not be a formal meeting. Bring your rod and practice casting and do some fishing.
8:00 AM is to beat both the crowds and the heat.
Ron will be selling the new club logo hats if you haven’t gotten yours.
September’s meeting will be on Wednesday September 20th at 6:00 PM. We will be back at the New Braunfels library on Commons. The meeting is a week early because the Comal County Fair is the following week and due to parking the Library asked us to consider either an earlier time or the 20th. Nathan Pence of GBRA will be our guest speaker. He is going to make the presentation he presented to GRTU at their last zoom meeting. The topic is the Guadalupe watershed and the impact of the drought.
Mark your calendar for September 20th. Bring your better half, neighbor, etc. The meeting will be very informative.
Thanks,
Pat

Video from Jim Gray on Carp Fishing
Jim has been a speaker a number of times at our club meeting and has a lot of knowledge on fishing a number of the local areas, very fun to listen to.
He had posted this video on his facebook page and I thought I would share it on our page here for those that may not know Mr Gray.
Hope you enjoy!
Three years ago, Chris Johnson and I sat down to talk about carp. I get a lot of requests for a video of my carp presentation, and while this isn’t in the format of a presentation, it does cover a lot of the same material. If you are interested in catching carp on the fly, this is a good place to start.
