Presidents Message June 2023

Every year it seems like summer will never get here but once it does it starts flying by! Then I find myself scrambling to squeeze in all the things I wanted to do once the weather gets nice.

We don’t have a speaker for the June 20th meeting and instead will have a swap meet. I’ve got quite a bit of stuff that has been donated, mostly fly tying materials, books and other odd & ends too. 

We have a GREAT Fish A Long lined up this month. Chris B has generously offered to host a multi day fish a long at his place between Sunriver and LaPine. I will get an email out with the details; heres a link to last years report: https://clackamasflyfishers.org/2022/07/27/july-2022-fish-a-long-report/

Also, this weekend is Free Fishing Weekend in Washington and it’s a good time to try for Shad. Here’s a link to the past report from 2021 where we did pretty well: https://clackamasflyfishers.org/2021/06/13/june-2021-fish-a-long-report/

For several years now we have been posting monthly fishing reports. Looking back on them is a fun way to get ideas for local fly fishing opportunities currently happening or coming up. Type “June” or “July” and you’ll get all the past reports for that month. 

Please remember our sponsors, they are the lifeblood of the club. Stop by their shops and let them know you appreciate their support. Better yet buy something or book a trip. 

Good fishing!
