Out next meeting is Jan 14, with Dustin Harley of Ripple Guide Service.

The Social Hour starts at 6 PM and announcements at 6:45PM. Presentations start at 7 PM and run to about 8PM.

We will be raffling a guide trip at this meeting for 2 on the St Joe with Ripple Guide Service. 

The topic of the talk will be 

A Year on the St. Joe

It has been said for the fly-fisherman, the St. Joe River is an enigma wrapped in a mystery. This program will unwrap the mystery of what is quite possibly the best steelhead fishery in the United States. This presentation covers the vast angling opportunities the river and its tributaries offer throughout the year. Included are techniques for steelhead, salmon, smallmouth bass, longnose gar, rod/reel selection, fly selection, terminal rigging, and reading the water.
