Mid-Coast Flyfishers Meeting -- 9 June 2025

 Such a great meeting of the Mid-Coast Flyfishers tonight that I forgot to snap a picture! Thanks everyone who attended! I'll echo Bill's statement that it was a great turnout for a June meeting! It certainly gave me some more insight into the direction we should be moving in and what the membership wants to get out of the club. Please don't hesitate to reach out with suggestions or improvements any time! I've got to say though, the mention of bluegill, small natives and bluelines made me awfully nostalgic! 

  MCFF meets the 2nd and 3rd Monday of each month. As always, all are welcome and I'll be glad to save you a seat!

MCFF Tying Night -- 21 April 2025

 

Great turnout at tonight's MCFF Tying Night! Capt. Frank Brownell started us out with a presentation on the Eyes on Seagrass grass tracking app to fulfill an assignment for his Master Naturalist studies. Then, Bob Dillon led the tyers in tying one of his amazing flies, the BD Shrimpoon!! 

Tying Night is the third Monday of each month, following our regular meeting on the second Monday. All are welcome, and as always, I'll be glad to save you a seat!

MCFF Tying Night -- 17 March 2025

 Tying Night at MCFF saw Bob Dillon leading us with his interpretation of the late Bob Popovic's Hollow Fly that he dubbed the Spye! As per usual, mine was tied far too heavy, but this is a great technique that's open to lots of customization to suit your fishery! Tying Night is the 3rd Monday of each month! All are welcome, and as always, I'll be glad to save you a seat! 

MCFF Tying Meeting -- 17 Feb 2025

 

Excellent turnout for tonight's MCFF Tying Night! Members Guy Faherty and Bob Dillon are running a refresher course on some of the knots to know when setting up a new fly line, and Guy will be finishing the evening with showing his version of the McVay Gotcha Fly! MCFF meets the 2nd and 3rd Monday of each month. As always, all are welcome and I'll be glad to save you a seat!

Thanksgiving Day 2024

 Thanksgiving afternoon made for a stunningly beautiful time to throw poppers on a pond! Hooked up a nice little bass, that was the icing on the cake!

I'm itching to get the kayak back in the water!

I'm itching to get the kayak back in the water! I've got some maintenance to take care of and a few upgrades I'd like to try. What have you done to prep your fishing kayak for the season? Any products you'd recommend or would like to see me try? Let me know!
