John Loebach Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Received this from Ted Bernard today, I just read the post by Mark K about the Chris Helm article in Fly Fisherman on the Web. On the behalf of DRiFT, we would like to invite the ISA BassBuggers to the March 4 meeting of DRiFT. Chris Helm will be the guest speaker and the topic will be warm water flies using deer hair. The meeting will be at room M165 A/G at COD starting at 7 PM. Please announce this to the group. We would like to have a full room for Chris. Thanks, Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark K Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Great! Also noticed some other interesting speakers. sounds like a good group. Catchy acronym for a name too. Club Meetings DRiFT meets every Tuesday at 7pm from Sept - May at The College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn. During a typical meeting one of our members will demonstrate how to tie a fly pattern or cover a specific technique. Several times a year we have guest presenters who share their knowledge and expertise. Click here for last 1 years guests.

John Loebach Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Right you are Mark! We have 6 members at least that are also Drift members. Guests are welcome & Bob Rung (2/19) is a must attend in my opinion, he is the District fishieries biologist for the DNR for our region. The topic is our annual water willow planting that we fund & heavily support with manpower. The other 2 volunteer groups are Drift & Freinds of the Fox. Most of us know Craig Reindeau, he will be at the Blowout tying at the beginning as well as Monday nite(2/25) with the Bassbuggers, Tuesday with Drift & Thursday at One More Cast / thursday nite jam (7pm start). Lots of interesting stuff to stave off the midwinter blues. I really hope to see some ISA faces at one or more of these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coryg Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 How did this go? I could not make it. I'm sure he had some interesting things to say. Mark, He didn't say anything, because he had to cancel due to the heavy snow storms over Indiana & Ohio yesterday. I drove out after work to see Chris, the deerhair master, ran into Michael T and found out about the cancellation. We both left and went home. That's life.

Mark K Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Man, am I glad I decided to skip it. Would have wasted 3 hours between getting off work and the meeting, just hanging out west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
