Sept 14, 2010 Program and welcome back BBQ

Great News! The speaker for the September meeting is Mike "Moof" Mufich. He is the owner of the Humble Fly shop in Cody, Wy. He will be tying flies at 7:00 pm and talking about fishing the waters in and around that area at 8:00 pm.

Mike "Moof" Mufich began fly fishing at the age of four. By the time he was 20, he was "fly fishing crazy" and started a lengthy trout-bumming career. The last 15 years he has been trout-bumming or guiding. At the age of 27, he started guiding for Northfork Anglers in Cody and by the age of 33 he started his own shop. He’s fished from Argentina to Alaska and when asked about his fly fishing future, he’ll tell you "I’m just getting warmed up." His ultimate goal is to end his career the same way he started it, as a trout bum.

The greatest lessons he received from his grandpa and dad were on conservation of all things natural, but that nature had to be used for many things. It can house us, feed us to a point but more than anything, this incredible resource is there to inspire us in a way that nothing man made is capable of doing. The last lesson he learned before he was let alone in the wild, was the point that wild places should always remain wild and that upon entrance to these places, we are all charged with it’s protection and well being.
