Club Meetings
Club meetings detailsMystery Trips
How the mystery trip works.
An individual will pick a spot to fish, tell people where to meet, what time to meet and what they need to bring with them. Example – waders, what size rod, bait or lures, etc.
The group will meet, hopefully catch some fish, and is a great way to get to know other members of the club and learn some new spots to fish and how to fish them.
This is really a fun time, a great way to learn about fishing, and highly recommended.
Never hesitate to come up with a spot to fish and bring it to the mystery trip chairman, or the President of the club.
