President's Message
Our Goal is enjoyment of fly fishing
by Mark Borserine
I know that
everyone is expecting some sort of statement regarding the incident that
occurred at last month’s meeting.
The HOAFF’s
Bylaws specify that response to situations such as this are the domain of the
Board of Directors. I can assure all members that the Board takes this matter
very seriously. The members of the Board have sought both legal and expert
advice on the matter and are being very thorough so that their response is
responsible and appropriate.
There is a
fundamental misunderstanding about what conduct is allowed during the meetings
of a 501(c)3. Members and guest speakers are not prohibited from making
statements of a partisan nature as long as they do so as individuals. I can
assure you there has been no violation of the rules of 501(c)3. Any statements
made at the two meetings were individual opinions only.
I also want to
assure new members and guests who may have been shocked by this incident that
this is definitely not the norm at our meetings; and, this will not happen
again!
On to more
pleasant subjects reflecting the real purposes of our club: Education,
Conservation and Restoration and, most importantly, the enjoyment of our
members and the improvement of their skills and confidence as Fly Fishers.
I am excited to
see in the March 2005 issue of American Angler, an article entitled “Hard
Lessons”, a Master Class on Tough Trout, by our Spring Seminar presenter, Ed
Engle. If this article is any indication of the quality of the upcoming
Seminar, we are in for a real treat.
Again, I encourage you to attend this Seminar if you possibly can! It is a
unique opportunity to increase our skill and knowledge and just plain have a
good time! Remember to bring a friend!
Last month I
wrote an article on “Why join FFF”. Bob Hope said; “timing is everything”;
there is an article in the February 2005 issue of Field & Stream in their
Conservation section entitled “Listening to Sportsmen” by Bob Marshall. Two
statements from the article show how important
membership in organizations which further our goals and present a united
front are:
“This election
showed that the hunting and fishing community as a constituency is one that
needs to be dealt with. Both campaigns tried to do that”
“You hope that
our political leaders will notice that when the American people have a chance
to vote on conservation, even when it means adding taxes to themselves, the
vote for conservation overwhelmingly.
Now, more than ever, it’s up to the hunting and fishing communities to
bring this to the administration’s attention.”

e-mail addresses, several have been returned undelivered. E-mail is an
important way to distribute information and meeting updates.

2005 Hook on Fly Fishing Program
by Hod McIntosh
This year we
decided to hold this event on two consecutive Saturdays that fall after Spring
Break and before the schools are out and dates selected are Saturdays April 23
and 30.
The Kansas
Department of Wildlife and Parks have agreed to partner with us on this project
and we will again be using the Prairie Center (PC) located about 4 miles west
of Olathe on 135th Street.
The PC was a
great venue for last year’s program except for one drawback, lack of
cooperation by the fish. To correct this situation we asked the PC Manager,
Alaine Hudlin, to request the KDWP to stop their feeding the fish for a few
weeks prior to our program so the fish will be really hungry and the kids can
catch a fish on their own hand-tyed fly.
Last year we
all had a good time working with people really interested in learning something
about our sport of fly fishing and this year we hope more of our club members
will be involved in this club project. You don’t have to be a Pro to help us
with this project. The people in charge of the fly tying, knot tying and fly
casting will need helpers, so please get on board; you will enjoy helping on
this project.
The following
members have agreed to be in charge of the following facets of this event:
• PUBLICITY - Jim Mattes
• FLY TYING - Mark Borserine
• KNOT TYING - we need someone to
organize this section - would you take on this assignment?
• FLY CASTING - Tom James
• LAKESIDE MANAGEMENT - Fred Clark
When the member
who has accepted one of the assignments mentioned above ask for your help,
please say “Yes” and lend them a hand, you will enjoy being with people
interested in learning about our sport of fly fishing.
We believe we
have selected excellent dates for our 2005 program and we will have a big turn
out from the Metro Boy and Girl Scouts Units and the 4-H Clubs.
Remember, when
you are asked to help on this project the answer if “YES” and you will enjoy
this event.
2004 Auction and Raffle, Some Final
Thoughts
by Dan Zimmerman
Well, folks, we
made it through another auction. The 2003 auction was a major learning
experience. It was my hope for 2004 to better organize and streamline auction
procedures. I enlisted the help of many members and organized tasks into doable
segments. Many HOAFF members stepped up to the plate and made things much
easier, smoother and better. I think it is fair to say that overall, we had
very high quality fly rods, reels, equipment, flies, guided trips, etc.
Auctioneer, J.P. Rozine, his wife Lynn, and their assistant Stan all again did
a fantastic job both getting quality bids and entertaining the crowd.
Club revenue
from the auction far exceeding my best hopes. We took in $7669.01. Even after
expenses, our organization will net well in excess of $7000. This money is more
important than ever. As many of you know, the trend is toward fewer outdoor
sportsmen generally, and fewer fly fishermen specifically. I have been hearing
that revenues from similar auctions have been tending downward so we can be
proud of the generosity of HOAFF members. There is and always will be a need to
fund important conservation projects and to find and teach new fly fishermen,
young and old alike, the thrill of the sport and the responsibility that goes
with it. The funds we raised will help us continue to fund club activities and
expand our efforts in conservation, education and community projects.
I appreciate
the generous contribution of time and talent by our members. I have attempted
to personally thank everyone who helped. If I missed someone, I apologize. I also appreciate the spirited bidding and
the jovial atmosphere created by those attending.
Of course, I
thank our many donors. It all starts with items to raffle and auction. Please
keep these folks in mind whenever you buy something related to flyfishing.
As to 2005, I
have agreed to again act as auction chairman. I hope to keep the quantity and
quality of our contributions high and continue to develop the auction in a way
to ensure its longevity. I will again need the help of many to achieve this
goal.
Outings
We have two new Co-Chairs
of our Outings Committee for 2005; Jim Jorgensen and Bill Lyon. Many thanks to
Jim Ohnemus for the fine job he did for two years. Outings are an important
part of what our club does every year. Our club does and is doing things well
but we always want to improve what we do. Jim and Bill are looking for your
suggestions for outings for the upcoming year, here is their contact info; they
look forward to hearing from you!

The
Nature Conservancy: Bennett Spring/Niangua River Project
by The Nature Conservancy
In our efforts to promote
conservation and restoration of fisheries important to our region, our club has
donated $1500 to the Bennett
Spring/Niangua River Project.
Now we call on our members
to make individual donations to match these funds. As a further benefit, each
dollar donated by individual members up to the $1500 club donation will be
matched by a distinguished member of our club. This is most definitely a worthy
cause and with individual member donations, we could provide $4500 to this
project.
The purpose of this project
is to restore, expand and protect one of the last remaining Ozark savanna
landscapes and the high quality river system embedded within it. The Niangua
River is at the core of this critical ecosystem for the western Ozarks Savanna
Landscape Area. The Nature Conservancy and its partners will work to protect it
forever.
In addition to saving a
globally unique landscape, the project will:
• Protect Bennett Spring by conserving the land that encompasses portions
of the spring’s recharge area.
• Preserve the integrity of the Niangua River and the rich aquatic life it
contains.
• Enhance Bennett Spring State Park as a tourist destination and revenue
producer for the Lebanon community.
Your private donation, and
funds received by Heart of America Flyfishers will help fulfill an urgent need
to develop a unified conservation plan for the watershed.
Protection of the Bennett
Spring/Niangua Project is a premier opportunity to save one of the last great
natural places in Missouri.
Please
consider a donation to help The Nature Conservancy realize the goals in
protecting Bennett Spring.

Small
Stuff
by Steve
Jenkins
Is it part of the natural
evolution of fly fishers that (finally) we get intrigued with smaller flies -
the “small stuff”? Or is it giving in
to frustration when the “big stuff” won’t work? I can’t speak for others, but
for me maybe it was a combination. I guess there is little question that fly
fishers don’t start in this sport with a size 22 pheasant tail nymph.
Okay, if your first real
experience in fly fishing was with a guide on some famous western waters in the
fall, you might well have been given the small stuff right from the beginning.
But, I’ll bet that if you got into fly-fishing as a kid, or began on your own,
there wasn’t a fly smaller than size 16 in your box. But, as your experience
matured, the box probably began to hold more and more little things.
My first exposure to small
stuff was on the Battenkill in New York. I was given two size 20 dunnish flies
by Ralph, the proprietor of a diminutive fly shop near the river and about a
mile from the state line.
These flies were in
response to my whining about the tiny bugs coming off the creek one evening and
frustration in what to throw at them. This was probably thirty years ago. Ralph
talked about a certain hole formed against the north bank by an upstream run
over some rocks and guarded by a large black willow tree. The fast water tailed
quickly into this large, still pool that he said was “perfect” for blue winged
olives.
Beautifully tied with light
duck quill wings and grey body, tails and hackle, these were the tiniest flies
I had ever held. I had to buy a leader because I was outfitted to fish 12s and
14s. I returned to the stream many times after this lesson by Ralph, but never
saw the flies he referenced, even in the special hole he mentioned. I expect it
was five years later before one of those flies ever saw daylight and hit the
water.
In the meantime, as I began
to learn the pattern of the bugs hatching on the Battenkill, there were no
other small stuff opportunities until I learned about the tricorythodes,
a tiny fly George Harvey calls “The Most Important Hatch” in his Techniques
of Trout Fishing and Fly Tying, Lyons & Burford, NY, 1985 & 1990.
This queer little fly is on the stream in the morning in late summer and early
fall. They run from about size 20 to maybe 24!
And, on the Battenkill, when the fly is on, the trout go crazy.
I heard other fishermen
talking about this hatch, and I even tried to be on the stream at daybreak a
couple of times. But, I never positively identified the fly nor enjoyed much
success until maybe 15 years ago. There are several patterns favored in
different regions, but all are small. Plus, the spinner form of the fly is the
most available, and your pattern - a dry fly — needs to sit flush in the film.
Small fly, fished flush, early mornings, dark patterns - it can be mighty tough
fishing. But, now I salivate thinking about tricos on the Battenkill.
Midges - I have tended to
avoid even thinking about them. While living in Texas a few years back, I
fished the tailwater trout in the Brazos River in February. These are stockies
and mostly provide food for the big stripers that roam this river between the
various lakes. But, Tom and I have had some fun times there.
Most of our trout were
taken on small stuff - generally small nymphs. However, one year even smaller
nymphs wouldn’t work. After some investigation, including stomach samples from
a fish we would eat for supper, we could see these fish were really keying on
midge pupa, suspended in the water at the surface. We diddled with some of our
small nymphs in the evening and hoped we were ready for the challenge in the
morning.
I missed bunches of fish
using a size 22 small stuff I created from a hackled dry fly. The misses were
clearly because I couldn’t detect the strike in time to catch the fish.
I remembered a leader I had
made with several ½ inch segments of red fly line slipped over the
monofilament. It was somewhere in the back of my vest. I waded to shore, dug
out this leader (about 10 ft., 6 X), made the change and went to work. The red
on the leader was visible even under 2-3 ft of water. It worked like an
indicator, but was subsurface.
But most of the success was
when the little red markers helped keep the leader up and the fly near the
surface. We found that anything larger than 22 was a waste of effort. The next
year, we came prepared, but then the trout seemed to like a size 14 hare’s ear
nymph, and I was just as glad.
Phil returned from Colorado
a few seasons back touting a little black nymph he was using with success. At
his request, I tied up several in 18, 20 and 22. He said the fish on the Frying
Pan had eaten these things up. He was dragging this nymph on a 12-inch dropper,
under a size 16 dry fly that doubled as an indicator.
About a month later, I was
there trying the same trick. But, I must have been doing something wrong,
because I only had about three fish after about three hours of work. Finally
another fisherman - an “off duty” guide - took pity on me and said I should use
nothing larger than 7 X leader.
So, I cut down the 6 X ,
tied on three feet of 7 X and, “shazam”, it worked. However, I didn’t see much
difference between a conventional pheasant tail nymph and the black.
Tom and I now fish the
White River in the fall, since I moved from Houston. And, generally, we use
big, ugly streamers and soft hackles. However, one Friday afternoon as the
stream was dropping, some tiny caddis began to emerge in the area around
Wildcat where we were fishing.
We noticed gentle dimples
and splashes, particularly above a run of faster water. Moving to a better
position, we could see some bitty-bugs coming off the water, and soon we were
sure some fish were taking these things. I switched to a 6 X leader and finally
dug up a small deer hair caddis, tied on a size 18 hook.
After clipping off some of
the hair, I began working this over these fish. It wasn’t pretty, but I managed
six or eight fish, all small. Tom, upstream and out of sight, did much the
same, but he started with a smaller fly. He did better, including one 16-inch
rainbow. Now, we go prepared, each with a box of small stuff. But, so far we
haven’t run into this activity again.
On the Frying Pan, in
Colorado, small stuff is now a regular part of my gear. The stream is loaded
with BWO flies (Baetis) and normally they are particularly abundant on
cloudy days (which are infrequent in the fall).
When in the east in late
summer, you will always find a box of trico dry fly patterns in my vest. The
trico “culture” can be esoteric. Some fishermen will use different sizes (all
small stuff) and colors every morning when on the stream. How do they know when
to switch?
Small stuff is an attitude.
You can either go out on the stream naked of such flies, get surprised and have
to improvise your own, or take a box full and remain hopeful. Mastering the
small stuff is a confidence builder.
And, if you get a buzz out
of catching fish on flies you have tied, expect a buzz and a bang if that fly
is a size 22 trico spinner, micro caddis or pheasant tail nymph. After a few
years of experience, let’s hope you won’t sweat the small stuff.
Membership the Guarantee of Future of Fly Fishing
Who will teach the new fly
fisher about casting and tying techniques if we can not?, What organization
will preach catch and release, fishing ethics and conservation of the resource
if the FFF is unable to? Who will
assure fly-fishing opportunity will be there for tomorrow if the Federation
doesn’t? Your support is the only guarantee
there is for education, conservation and restoration through fly fishing.
FFF Leads the Alliance for Fly Fishing Education
In the most recent issue of
“FlyFisher” magazine, the official publication of FFF, the Alliance for Fly
Fishing Education (AFFE), meeting in Minneapolis, elected Bob Wiltshire, the
FFF’s chief operating officer, to chair the new organization.
The AFFE will serve as the
central point of information for fly-fishing education in North America. Representatives attending were from Scott
Fly Rods, Trout Unlimited, the National 4-H fishing program, Future Fishing
Foundation, Family Tyes, Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation, Boy
Scouts of America and the Federation of Fly Fishers. For additional information about AFFE, contact Bob Wiltshire at
(406) 222-9369 or fdc@fedflyfishers.org.
Federation of Fly Fishers/Specialty
