Recap of Wednesday Meeting

Several interesting and noteworthy things happened at this meeting.

Our host John MacDiarmid came and assured us that we were welcome to use the building but that we had all collectively neglected to return the favor and pay the rent by donating flies to WaterWatch to be used in their annual Auction that occurs every November.  This plan is a win, win for everyone.  Going forward we will employ new tactics that will insure better results.  New plan:

↻ There is a new page on the blog titled WaterWatch right next to the Home page.  This will track the progress and be updated as needed.
↻ There will be a continuous report on those who have committed to tie and the delivery of the flies.
↻ Tom Collett will be the person to advocate and track the progress.

Mark Swanburg had a request that we help a 14 year old boy who wanted to start tying flies.  He left the meeting with a box that included a vice and some tools and materials.  More on this project later.

And of course the star of the show Cathy Hamilton with her amazing woven flies.  Lets just focus on just one fly, the Woven Caddis Larva using the overhand weave.
