SUMMARY:Otter Creek Trip (FULL)
DESCRIPTION:February 28-March 2nd \nAccommodations: Rustic bunk house located in the campground area \nNumber of Spots available: 8 \nCost: $60 a person \nTrip Coordinator:  Mark Vincent\, mark@derbycityflyfishers.com\, (502) 500-1561. \nLevel 3 Trip: (See Trip Suitability for details). This is a DIY wade fishing trip\, with access to the park provided.  Please obey all fishing regulations.  For those not familiar with Otter Creek it is located in Meade County about 30 minutes outside Louisville.  Well stocked with Rainbow Trout and several access points if you are willing to hike a bit.  Due to its proximity to Louisville\, it does receive quite a bit of fishing pressure.  Please pay close attention to the weather and bring appropriate clothing and gear. \nEquipment: 2 to 6 weight fly rods.  This is mostly a nymph stream\, on occasion a good hatch will occur and dry fly action can be rewarding.  Bring the usual fly patterns\, too various to mention\, keep in mind this is really not a beginner trip.  Waders are a must\, this is winter so wet wading could be detrimental to your health.  Nets will increase your landing percentage and is much easier on the fish.  Wading staff can be a good item to have as water could be cloudy depending on what type of weather we have leading up to the trip. \nFishing License and Permits: Kentucky fishing license is required\,  expiration for the 2024 season is on the 2/28/25.  Make sure you purchase the 2025 license before you leave home as internet coverage can be inconsistent. \nThe Plan: You may arrive early on Friday (28th) and fish during the day.  We will be having a community dinner that night.  Saturday we’ll start with breakfast\, fish during the day\, and dinner that evening\, time to be determined.  If the weather permits campfire on Friday and Saturday nights is one of the highlights of the trip\, be sure to bring a camp chair.  Check out is on Sunday you may fish as long as you like or until the park closes\, whichever comes first. \nCost of meals and lodging are included in the price\, however lunch you will be on your own.  Bring snacks and your choice of beverages for the weekend.  We’ll be pitching in to assist with cooking and cleaning duties. \nThe bunkhouse has heat\, electricity\, no running water\, no bathroom\, and a small refrigerator. Please bring coolers for your drinks\, lunch items\, snacks etc. Access is provided within the campground to a heated shower house and bathrooms\, bring your own towel and toiletries. \nYou will need a sleeping bag\, pillow\, or whatever sleep system you prefer for a comfortable night sleep.  There are 2-3 inch foam pads on each bunkbed\, but they are not the most comfortable.  If you have a sleeping pad to place on top of these mats we highly recommend bringing them along. \nEar plugs are not required but strongly encouraged.  The Trip Signup is live\, click here to register. \nIf you have any questions about this trip please contact Mark Vincent (502) 500-1561.

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting CANCELED
DESCRIPTION:Due to the threat of inclement weather\, it has been decided to cancel this months meeting.  \nMeetings are open to everyone\, you do not have to be a member to attend.  Typical format: 10-15 minute “Tackle Time”  presentation on some aspect of Fly Fishing followed by a business segment to introduce new members and guests\,  take questions and get updates on fishing from attendees\, announce/discuss upcoming events/trips\, and conduct any required club business. All this is followed by a 30 – 45 minute presentation by a guest speaker on a fly fishing related topic. \nThe primary focus of this meeting will be our annual Fly Fishing 101 presentation. If you are new to fly fishing or just inexperienced\, the club will give you all the information you need to get equipped (without breaking the bank) and put you on the water. The sport can seem complex and somewhat overwhelming to those just getting their waders wet. Don’t miss this meeting to help simplify the experience and gain some confidence. Walk away with an understanding of the basic information and tools you need to get started.

SUMMARY:Fly Tying - Bass Pro
DESCRIPTION:Club Member Dave Conroy is going to demonstrate tying the Aurora nymph\, it is a great fly for trout in spring thru early summer. It can also be tied with a dubbed body for trout and panfish. Rubber leg nymphs like this are just about his favorite flies to tie and fish. The movement of the legs and tail and the overall buggy appearance make them real fish catchers. \n \nHere’s the recipe for the Aurora Nymph fly. \nHook: size 12 or 14 scud or size 12 or 14 jig. \nBead: 1/8″ for size 12\, 7/64″ for size 14\, gold or copper. \nThread: 8/0\, black or olive. \nTail and legs: fine round rubber\, brown or tan. \nBody: UTC mirage tinsel\, size large. \nRibbing: small gold or copper wire. \nThorax: peacock ice dub. \nWing case: UTC mirage tinsel\, size large. \n  \nOur Fly-Tying Classes are open to everyone – you do not have to be a member to attend.  Generally\, we tie one fly\, but we tie it twice.  An instructor demonstrates\, step-by-step\, how to tie the fly with accompanying video on a big screen TV so students can see each step. \nTools and materials are provided at no cost\, but if you have your own tools feel free to bring them. \nBeginners are welcome.  There will be experienced tiers available to provide individual help.
