December 19 Speaker – Michole Jensen
Michole Jensen of www.Kayakflyangler.com will be CFF’s guest speaker Tuesday, December 19th.
His fly fishing pursuits have taken him to Alaska, New Zealand, British Columbia, Hawaii and beyond. He has caught a variety of fish on the fly from sharks to bullhead catfish.
Kayak fishing is one of the fastest growing sports and fly fishing from a kayak continues to follow along with that popularity. Kayaks represent a new element of fly fishing that has as many opportunities as there is water to fish.
Michole has caught steelhead, sturgeon, trout, bass and panfish from the kayak. His presentation on Kayak Fly fishing will both entertain and inform!

President’s Message December 2017

Happy Holidays from myself and the board. We wish you and yours a great holiday season including a chance to get out and fish before the end of the year. Darn it will be soon be the time to renew our fishing license for another year. This sure seemed to go by quickly.
As you saw on the blog we had a great fish-a-long on the Kilchis River for Chum Salmon. Weather was good as were the water conditions so the fish were there and everyone had some action. Be sure to try and get down next year during the season and fish for these as they are fun to catch. The best time is after a good rain has brought the river up and it has dropped to a fish able level.
We will not be having a fish-a-long in December, but we will have our annual Christmas meeting with a gift for everyone member who attends the meeting. Our speaker this month is Michole Jensen and he will share with us the techniques of kayak fishing. This should be an interesting topic to explore.
Last month Jeff Morgan share his insights in fishing the myriad of lakes and streams in our Cascade range. It was very informative as well as entertaining as there is a whole world of Trout fishing many of us have not explored.
The board is already planning for next year and if you do have any suggestions please let a board member know. We are always interested in ideas and activities that will make the club more interesting and fun.
Remember our sponsors by visiting their shops when you are in their area. Stop in and purchase something, book a trip, or just say hello and thank them for their support.
