The focus of our May 17 meeting is a Swap Meet.
We all have rods, reels, fly boxes, tools, etc. that we no longer use or need that we might be willing to trade, sell, or just give away. Someone else in the club might be on the lookout for one of those very items.
For example, the club has accumulated a variety of rod tubes over the years. I will bring those to give away.
I also inherited a light weight set of mens’ waders and wading boots and a set of ladies’ hip waders and boots from my in-laws. Perfectly good, but wrong size for us.

You might have an old rod or reel that someone might want for a grandchild. Bring ’em!
Maybe you have an old vest or rain jacket that just doesn’t fit well anymore. Bring it!
Perhaps you don’t tie flies anymore but still have some equipment or supplies. Bring ’em!
You probably upgraded something recently and don’t know what to do with your old stuff. Bring it!

We will swap, dicker, barter, buy, and sell. I hope to have time for members to share stories, memories, and tall tales about their fishing experiences. It should be a fun evening and might be the perfect time to bring along a family member or two. See you on May 17.

Let me know if you have questions.
