The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

You're all welcome to visit the Fly Fishers of Davis on Tuesday, November 26 for a talk on steelhead fishing in the Pacific Northwest by Jeff Putnam. While the main focus will be on Northern California and Southern Oregon rivers, Jeff is also planning to discuss fly fishing for steelhead in British Columbia. He will emphasize techniques with a talk that will be more than just a travelogue. Jeff plans to discuss tactics (dead drift, swinging, etc.) as well the use of both single- and two-handed fly rods. This is a great opportunity to learn about the advantages of spey casting from one of the very best spey casting instructors on the West Coast.
Jeff is a well-known local guide and a Federation of Fly Fishers certified casting instructor for both single- and two-handed fly casting. While he is still often found helping folks at Kiene's Fly Shop, these days Jeff spends most of his time running Jeff Putnam's Fly Fishing School (http://jpflyfishing.com). He offers casting and fly fishing instruction for beginning through advanced fly fishers. His venues vary widely with classes being held everywhere from right here on the American to his annual Steelhead Fishing School held on the Skeena in British Columbia. Few can boast the breadth of Jeff's fly fishing experience, technical knowledge, and teaching experience, and you will not want to miss November's presentation. The Fly Fishers of Davis meet at Harper Jr. High School at 7:30 p.m. Visitors are welcome - call me at 758-6722 or reply here if you have questions.

I'm interested, but your dates don't jive. Tuesday is the 27th, so is it tonight (Tuesday)or was it last night? Thanks.

Oops! It's definitely Tuesday, but the 27th. Thanks for catching it! We meet on the last Tuesday of the month, except in December (this year on the 11th). We have our annual dinner in February, so no regular meeting then, and we take off July and August. Check out our web page for more information - http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/go/ffd/.
