Come out to meet some of the top fly tiers in southern california and help support the southwest council fff this saturday, January 31st from 9am to 4pm at the historic long beach casting club. There are lots of great prizes to win in this year’s raffle.
Casting lessons from Federation Certified and Master Certified Casting Instructors will be available for $1 per minute (15 minute minimum).
Tell us which item raffle # bucket you want your tickets put into, and we’ll make sure you get a chance to win some great prizes for showing your support for the fly fishing community and helping out Shane Chung’s son. As a lot of you know, Shane, who was a great supporter of the fly fishing community, and a brilliant fly tyer, tragically passed away way too early last year leaving a wife and a young son.

Q, Will try my best, but slim chance to make it. Club banquet at noon and Greg has a double header that day. He made the team at WLACC. I am a proud dad. Priest wanted me to go with him to the LA wall on Sunday. Take my boat. I was too busy. He only got a few and nothing big. Water temp had dropped. I put mu mom in an assisted living facility on Sunday. That is a big step in life. Means a lot of driving for me, but is close to the girls. Oh well That is the process of life.
Your a good man John!
Clicked on the link and saw that Chris Taylor is tying at this event. Is that Chris the sign painter? (In his 60s, big guy with white hair and beard with a big smile.) If it is, tell him hello for me. If you see Steve Fernandez…tell him my daughter ties better than he does. “Hello” is okay too.
You’re in good company. I haven’t seen some of those guys in 20 years.
