Hope everyone is having a good mid-winter. So far for me fly tying, thinking about spring fly fishing trips and getting the new batch of TIC eggs to the schools have been keeping me busy.
Joyce and I attended the Fly Fishing Show in Atlanta the first of February. I highly recommend it if you can attend. The lecture series was excellent. Several of the chapter’s fly fishing friends were inducted into the Southern Trout hall of fame.
The TU Southeast Regional Conference will be held at the Canaan Valley Resort in Davis, West Virginia on May 18-20. The Tennessee Council of TU has made $200.00 available to each chapter for expense money for the conference. Anyone wishing to use this expense money for the conference, please send me an e-mail and you will be entered into a drawing for the money.
The chapter lost a valued member this month, Tom Eustis. I had the pleasure of working with Tom on the TIC program. He was a great help with the kids and was
always willing to help when he could.
The meeting this month will be Tuesday, February 27th at Barley’s in Maryville. The social hour starts at 6:00 and the meeting will start at 7:00. Matt Culp will be the speaker discussing the state of the park.
