The next book club gathering will be held on Monday, March 25th at Winzer Stube, in Hudson, Wisconsin. The group will be discussing Little Rivers by Margot Page. You don’t have to be an angler, fly tyer, casting phenom or trout nerd to join the gathering. You just need an interest in reading and chatting with others who like to read too. If you know of any women who might be interested in attending, please contact Jennifer Medley at jennifer@turningleafstudio.com.

Please join us on May 1 for a Kiap-on-Tap chapter social at 6:00-8:30 PM at Rush River Brewing in River Falls. Volunteers have been planning away and it’s bound to be a great night to gather, catch-up with old friends, make new friends and enjoy the final chapter meeting of 2018-2019. Then it’s time for spring and summer and making new memories to share at the next chapter meeting in September. Please join us!
We will meet at 8:30 am to sign up for locations along the river and then disperse from there. Lunch will be provided afterwards.
Join us streamside for our next book club meeting on May 23. We will be meeting at a residence near River Falls and carpooling to a location on the Trimbelle River to meet, eat, and discuss our next book, Killers of the Flower Moon.
This year’s Fly Fishing Clinic, sponsored jointly by Kiap-TU-Wish and River Falls Parks and Recreation, is set for Saturday, June 1st, from 1:00-9:00pm in Glen Park, River Falls. We’ve been conducting this clinic for years and we know that it’s always popular; we expect about twenty students. The clinic will cover casting, knot tying, entomology, fishing strategies and wading safety. The Chapter will provide supper during a break at 5:00pm, and guided fishing in the evening.
Our chapter members are invited to join us as instructors, mentors, guides and supper servers. Mark your calendars for June 1st and volunteer by contacting Mike Alwin at mikealwin@gmail.com or Brian Smolinski at brian@lundsflyshop.com. I guarantee you’ll have fun.
