Take a Buddy Fishing
![]() |
Meet Flat LIFR. He’s Flat Stanley’s cousin and an avid fly fisherman. As a new
Flyrodder, he is eager to accompany you on your fly fishing trips.
Although not willing to share the cost of your trip, Flat LIFR will otherwise be a good companion. His sunny disposition won’t fade if he doesn’t catch fish and he won’t comment on your casting ability. He doesn’t snore, either. All Flat LIFR asks is that you take him along and photograph him on your fishing adventure. At the end of the year, turn in your photos showing where you took Flat LIFR and we’ll see who came up with the most creative way to show him in a fly fishing setting. Remember, this is all in good, clean fun and the pictures should reflect that. If you’re interested in taking this buddy fishing, see Susan Solomon. |

Our website features an extensive
collection of members' photos going back to 1999. If you would like to see your

1. Photos must be of:

| Special Interest photos taken by club members (i.e. photo contest winners, fish, environment, etc.) |

Several local fishing tackle shops have set up a collection box where one can deposit used monofilament line for recycling. Linda Macy has volunteered to provide this service for the club by coordinating this effort with the "Berkley Recycle Program. She will be collecting used and discarded fishing line at the general meetings and sending it to Berkley to be recycled into artificial fishing structures. Please make sure you remove all hooks, metal attachments and debris before depositing your used line in the box.
