TU Hosting the International Fly Fishing Festival

Nocterra Brewing | October 6, 2023

TU Mad River Chapter is using the IF4 screening to bring together the fly fishing community in Central Ohio and as a fundraiser for stream restoration work the Chapter is planning for the Mad River. It will be a free event, but there will be raffles and a silent auction to raise funds. 

Donations will be accepted at the door. 

Join us in the vendor garden before the film to hear what’s happening in the Central Ohio fly fishing community!

Vendor garden opens at 5:30 pm
Film screening starts at 7:00ish (sundown)

Hosted by: Trout Unlimited Mad River Chapter #477

This is a ticketless event, but those who register for a free ticket will be entered into a raffle drawing-must be present to win. 

For information about this screening, please contact host at pamallen@tumadriver.org. For questions about IF4™ or the presentation email info@flyfilmfest.com.

February’s Meeting on Wednesday the 15th!

Good morning all,  


Just a heads up for February’s meeting, as COFF is always a proponent of domestic bliss, we were compelled to move February’s meeting off of our usual Tuesday date.  This year’s “normal” date would have been February 14th, instead, we will be meeting on Wednesday, February 15th.  Several factors involved, least of which is unusually large crowds on Valentine’s Day.  Jon Horn, purveyor of great speakers, has yet another lined up for us this coming month.

John Navarro  (ODNR)

“The Recovery of Ohio Stream Fishes – Thank you Clean Water Act!”

John is an administrator of the Aquatic Stewardship Program.  His team works on the restoration and protection of physical habitats in and adjacent to streams, and meeting the requirements and stream designations put forth by the Clean Water Act.

Will surely be another great meeting, I will send another reminder when the date draws near.  

Have a great day,

Tim
