Welcome to August. We are more than half way through this fine month of challenging fishing. We will have an opportunity to test skill and luck in the One Fly competition at Walnut Creek later this month.
I take great pleasure in thanking the members who brought watercraft and presented ways to use them at July's meeting. Colleen Whitney did a wonderful job conducting the meeting in my absence. Thanks to all who participated and shared the virtues of their ways to fish.
Our Carp Feast was delightful as 30 of us fished and ate at Two Rivers Park. This year, two fly fishers caught carp and catfish on a fly, with many witnesses to watch and pictures to show. Of course, the food, shelters, and goods that we enjoyed were brought, set up, cooked and cleaned up by volunteer members. Thanks go to Doug King, Agnes Adams, Sandy Cox, Donald Klostermeyer, Rich Keuchel, Neil and Gail Boston plus others for their time and contributions that made this event memorable.
Thanks to Jeff Kurrus, the Cornhusker Fly Fishers were featured in July's issue of NEBRASKAland magazine. Excellent photography and text Jeff. We appreciate your work.
Finally, the Nebraska State Fair, Survival Fly Tying, and the One Fly are the upcoming events for late August. Enjoy, it's all about fun.
