Program
The Amazing Spey Rod
Our
program for May will be “The Amazing Spey Rod” presented by Lee
Davison of Rigby, Idaho, where he and his wife Nancy own a spey rod
shop. Nancy and Lee are busy with demonstrations and programs in
many different parts of the country. Both are active members of the
Rocky Mountain Council of the Federation of Fly Fishers. They will
be demonstrating spey rod casting at 6:30pm on the lawn just south
of the Rod & Gun Club building. Our regular meeting will begin at
7:30pm.
On Wednesday, May 7th, we will be holding a spey rod session up
stream from the Duck Creek Bridge on the Yellowstone at 10am. This
is your chance to give the spey rod a try on the river. Contact Hugh
Huntley at 652-2261 for details and directions. This is a unique
opportunity for our club so don’t miss out on this meeting!
