Fly tying is a unique marriage of the art and craft. In its most basic form it is a means to an end, a deception designed to entice a fish to accept the offering. But many tyers go beyond the purely utilitarian and elevate their creation as something beautiful to behold in their own right. At Renzetti we are dedicated to providing you the tools to tie at whatever level suits your fancy. 2 | Renzetti 2020 Catalog Renzetti 2020 Catalog | 3 R To order Click Here to MASTER SERIES VISES find a Dealer, or order at TRUE ROTARY® FOR HOOKS #28 TO 10/0 www.Rdflyfishing.com Available in 5 models, all offering the same great features but with different finishes and pedestal bases.

    The Leader April 2020 The Newsletter of The Granite Bay Flycasters April 2020 http://gbflycasters.org Leader’s Line by TinaLyn Sell, GBF President I am going to keep this short and sweet this month. I have one board position to fill before the end of June. Eric Palmer, VP Membership, has been doing an amazing job the past several years, and has done his time. He has earned a break. If you have experience with Excel and would like to step up and help out the club, please email me or Eric to discuss this position and all the fun that comes with it. Just in case you have not heard, in light of the current health situation, GBF has followed the State mandate and canceled all club events until April 15th. This does not mean you cannot reduce your stress, anger, and fear, while increasing pleasant feelings and overall well being. How can I do that, you ask? With good ole’ nature and a fishout. There are three, yes 3, in the month of April alone. See, things are already looking brighter. Now, get out there and enjoy what GBF and Mother Nature have to offer. Fly Casting Clinics Scheduled for April, 2020 by John Hogg This is to announce GBF’s annual flycasting clinics. These clinics are appropriate for all skill levels of casters. If you are a novice, we will get you going; and if you are experienced, we will make you better. The clinics are conducted over two consecutive Saturdays—each day will offer new material.

  • Journal of the Amerimn Museum of Fly Fishing
    Journal of the Amerimn Museum of Fly Fishing WINTER 2~03 VOLUME 19 NUMBER I Trout Memories and Pike Tales caught and released my first trout in April 1989 on the Beaverlull. My memory of this is pretty good, I think, Ialthough it's not as vivid as perhaps it should be. I know the date because my husband saved the black stonefly nymph and framed it in a shadowbox-an act of historical documentation close to the date of the actual event. When we lived in the D.C. area, we'd sometimes drive up to Big Hunting Creek, a favorite haunt of my high school days. I must have occasionally caught fish there, but I can't remember any particular fish. Maybe I didn't catch any. What I remember is being happy on the familiar creek, away from the city. What if I did vividly remember these fishing trips? Would I be right in their detail? How much of memory is what actual- ly happened, and how much of it is remembering the story we tell ourselves about what happened? How do the details change over time? Paul Schullery was doing a lot of fly fishing in Yellowstone National Park thirty years ago when he first began reading By noting the first published claim of pike not taking the about the sport's history. On the must-read list was Edward R. artificial fly as bait (Robert Venables, The Experience'd Angler, Hewitt, who, it turned out, had written quite the account of 1662), Frederick Buller makes the argument that people have fishing the park in the early 1880s.

  • IFFF FLY TYING GROUP Fly Tying Skills Awards Program
    FLY TYI NG GROUP IFFF FLY TYING GROUP Fly Tying Skills Awards Program Produced by the International Fereration of Fly Fishers, Fly Tying Group as an adaptation of the Guild Awards Scheme of the UK Fly Dresser’s Guild. Why an IFFF Fly Tying Skills Award Program? The IFFF Fly Ting Group exists to preserve, enhance and support the art of fly tying. Our focus generally is two- fold: sharing of information and teaching so that more people may take an interest in our craft and become more knowledgeable and accomplished tiers. The purpose of the IFFF Fly Tying Group is as follows: “The FTG is dedicated to the preservation, enhancement and support of the art of fly tying as a historic element of the fly-fishing experience. Archiving of historic documents, development of educational and instructional materials, teaching and demonstration are fundamental to perpetuating the art of fly tying for anglers who fish with the artificial fly.” For individuals to improve as tiers, they need to be able to measure their progress. The IFFF Fly Tying Skills Awards Program provides IFFF members with the opportunity to develop or reinforce their fly tying skills and test their progress against a consistent, standard at three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold. Program Overview and Goals This International Federation of Fly Fishers (IFFF) Fly Tying Skills Awards Program is an educational program for all IFFF members who care to take part. The Awards Program is managed for and on behalf of the IFFF by Fly Tying Group. The goal of the Awards Program is to encourage IFFF members to develop and improve their fly tying skills at their own pace through a structured learning plan with progressive goals and in so doing contribute to the purpose of the FTG.

  • The Current April 2006
    Volume 10 No. 4 The Current April 2006 The Newsletter of the Columbia-Greene Rip Van Winkle Chapter #569 of Trout Unlimited TU...TO CONSERVE, PROTECT & RESTORE NORTH AMERICA'S COLD WATER FISHERIES & THEIR WATERSHEDS A VERY SPECIAL SPORTSMAN JOHN “JACK” ARCHIBALD SMITH Former Columbia-Greene Rip Van Winkle Chapter member, John “Jack” Archibald Smith was a life-long resident of Palenville and the Saranac region of the Adirondacks. He was a fly tyer and fly fisherman, a bird and deer hunter, golfer, skier, and former World War II Army Air Force pilot. Jack designed and built lightweight custom graphite fly rods. He was an advocate of “soft hackled” flies. The following “remembrance” brings out the true essence of this very special sportsman. I know in the future, whenever I fish, and by fish, I mean with a fly rod, not the spinning rod from my youth, that I will be reminded of Jack. I will be reminded of him sitting in his stuffed chair, chain smoking, surrounded by photos of large fish, and photos of him in his waders holding a humongous salmon with both hands…salmon, caught in Canada, that made Jack look small…salmon the size of one leg of Jack’s waders. I will also be reminded of Jack teaching me to cast in his yard. I was trying to buy a fly rod and I did not know how to cast, or what I was getting myself into. A friend who I had casually told I had always wanted to learn to fly fish had recommended Jack to me.
