This month we pay tribute to world-renowned flycasting instructor and outdoorsman Bill Gammel, who passed away earlier this month. Bill and his dad Jay wrote the groundbreaking booklet, "The Five Essentials of Fly Casting" in 1990, which has since become the foundation for teaching effective casting, used by instructors worldwide.
We'll first walk through a brief powerpoint featuring two videos, one by Bill and another by one of Europe's top casting instructors, on The Five Essentials. Then our panel of club casting gurus will elaborate on each of the principles, with some live demonstration possible as well.
If you're new to flycasting, or looking to improve your casting skills, DO NOT MISS THIS MEETING! Come ready to ask questions and learn what it takes to make an effective cast every time!
Also on the agenda: Recap of our Cenla Fly Fest, updates on Mixed Bag and Big Catch contests, details on the Summer Workshop in July, Fishing Reports and more.
