Title: Smith River TU meeting, Thurs, Sept 6th - Carp Fishing
Post by: Al on September 01, 2018, 19:59:24 PM
Smith River Trout Unlimited (SRTU) will host a meeting Thursday, September 6, 2018,  6:30 p.m., at Rania's Restaurant, 147 Main St, Martinsville VA . Local carp fishing "legend" Neil Tatum will give a presentation on how to entice and catch these huge but very spooky fish with a fly rod.

You do not have to be a member of TU to attend our meetings.   Anyone who has an interest in the Smith River Fishery or surrounding waters is encouraged to attend. Chapter leaders will also discuss recent events relevant to local waters and upcoming events for the remainder of the year.

Meetings also feature a "swap shop"  set up in the back of the room. Bring what you want to sell or trade. Slap your name and a price on it and recycle the stuff you don't use or need. Look around for those "it was a good idea at the time" purchases you made but now reside in the back of your closet or garage. We always have several  items ready for new owners.  Be ready to haggle. Bring some extra cash and walk away with some neat "I need one of those" items!

While we have your attention – please save Saturday, Sept 15th for our fall SRTU clean up.  We'll meet at the Trent Hill Canoe Ramp (behind old chair factory) @ 8:30am and fan out from there. Details will be sent out in separate email.

Quotecarp fishing "legend"

If by "legend" you mean I get lucky and occasionally snag a carp or two then I suppose I qualify.  I just spent the better part of the day putting this damn thing together.  Reminded me of rushing towards a deadline back in my VT days.  I hated it then, I still hate it now.  Thank goodness it rained most of the afternoon; made it more bearable.  See you Thursday... :banana026:
