Join us Thursday, June 6, for our June club meeting at Orvis Memphis! Our own Fridtjof Thomas will give an update on available resources to improve your cast, and then we’ll head out to the parking lot for a Casting Contest.

Orvis has graciously offered to provided rods and reels, so you’ll get a chance to cast the all-new Helios, released earlier this year. We’ll have targets set up with point values, and you’ll have 3 minutes to see how high you can score. The winner and runner-up will receive great prizes – plus the coveted distinction of Mid-South Fly Fishers caster extraordinaire!

Newer to fly fishing? We’ll also have a practice lane where you can tune-up your cast with tips from our club experts. Come learn from some of the best fly casters in the Mid-South, and get some practice before your next trip to the water.

We’ll have hot dogs, chips and beverages for a small donation, and you can also bring your own food and drinks. Plus, you can enter the drawing for great door prizes, including fishing gear and gift cards.
