CHANGE OF MEETING LOCATION
LOCATION: Canyon Crest, Trailside Rm
DATE: November 17, 2011
TIME: 7:00p.m.
SPEAKER: Red Montgomery
Red Montgomery, now retired, was the owner of the former Snake River Outfitters in Twin Falls. Red’s fly shop was not only the best place to get nearly all a fly fisher might need to pursue his/her sport, but, along with all the equipment and supplies, Red was a fountain of knowledge on what fly to use and where; how to tie the fly; and when to use the fly. His knowledge was not limited just to the Magic Valley but was based on practical experience he gained from fishing throughout the West. But perhaps the best feature of his fly shop was the old cracker barrel atmosphere where tall tales were swapped, politics were cussed and discussed–all over a cup of coffee that was known to melt stirring spoons. Red will put on a fly tying program at our November meeting–don’t miss it!!

John Huber, Travel Manager for Ketchum on the Fly, gave a timely presentation entitled, “Winter Primer”. It was an excellent presentation that included what flies to use, leaders and tippets, strike indicators, holding water, soft rods, reels, floatant, tim
ing-best days, and releasing fish in cold weather. He also said to always have a change of dry clothes in case you accidentally get dunked in cold water. Immediately head for your vehicle to get warm and change to avoid hypothermia – Sound advice. view this excerpt from the meeting Winter Fishing Primer
