The April meeting will feature a tying demonstration by Paul Wolflick. If you have watched him demo before you know that he always come up with patterns that are innovative, very effective and easy to tie with common materials. He actually fishes these flies before claiming that they work. I have included the recipe for each fly below.

Don’t forget to bring a couple flies for the raffle fly box and any flies you have tied up for Water Watch or our other special project. This should be another great evening with good friends.
The RFF club has had several donations of fly tying materials and have too much inventory for the upcoming RFF auction in May. So, we've decided to have some blow out sales to reduce inventory and give you a chance at some great bargains.
It will be mostly fly tying materials, tools and hooks, with a few fishing items here and there.
This month will be Dick Bonamarte's and Joel Tobias' items.
DETAILS:
Big fly tying materials blow out sale at SOFT.
Tuesday, April 12, from 4 PM until 6 PM, just before the regular SOFT meeting.
Prices will be adjusted so that everything will sell, but please remember that it all goes to a good cause.
The regular SOFT meeting will begin at 6 PM, or earlier if we sell out.
The Bonemarte fly tying material collection will be on sale from 4 to 6 pm. Lots of great items left so come early for best selection. See you there.
