SUMMARY:October Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:  Michele White\nTopic:  “Lesser Known Fly Fishing Venues in South Park”\nGuest Tier: Phil Iwane \nMichele White will be presenting her fishing atlas\, “Lesser Known Fly Fishing Venues in South Park” – a complete compilation of every public access on the South Platte river system including all of its tributaries\, (Tarryall and Lost Creek) within the South Park Basin. The intention of my atlas is to relieve some of the daily fishing pressure that exists at the better known fly fishing venues: Dream Stream and Eleven Mile Canyon. \nMichele White is a retired international exploration geologist. She owns Tumbling Trout fly shop in Lake George\, Colorado and is a professional fly fishing guide. She has been fly fishing and rowing a dory (she is a certified boat handler) on the great rivers of the west for 20 years. Michele is a contributing editor for Mountain Gazette\, (thanks to John Fayhee)\, and has been published in Discover the Outdoors\, EQUUS\, Fly Fishing World\, Native People’s Magazine\, New Tribal Dawn\, and The Aquarian. \nMichele’s stories are included three anthologies: \n\n“Colorado Mountain Dogs”\, published by WestWinds Press\, 2014;\n“Comeback Wolves: Western Writers Speak for Wolves in the Southern Rockies”\, published by Johnson Books\, 2005; and\n“Hell’s Half Mile: River Runners’ Tales of Hilarity and Misadventure”\, published by Breakaway Books\, 2004.\n\nIn addition to her fishing atlas\, “Lesser Known Fly Fishing Venues\,” she also has another book\, “Eulogies and Dead Horses”\, which is a collection of reflective essays about life while fishing and working as geologist all over the world. \n  \nPhil Iwane\, our tier for October\, Phil says he is artistic by nature\, and views each fly he ties as a piece of art. He has tied hundreds of patterns but now has narrowed it down to flies that catch fish.  Umpqua has added his Iwan-e-Dun extended body mayfly series to their offerings. He is a Whiting Farm Ambassador as well as a Umpqua Signature Fly Designer. \n  \nKarin Miller from Zin Fly Fishing and April Archer from SaraBella Fly Fishing. They will have a table is and have their equipment there. It’s shaping up to be a big night!!! \n  \n \nCanned Food Drive\nBring a non-perishable food item to our Chapter meeting and get a raffle ticket for a chance to win a fabulous prize.  All food items donated will be given to the Arvada food bank.  Please be generous.

SUMMARY:June Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:  Steve Schweitzer\nTopic:  Topwater! – Designing and Fishing Effective Topwater Bugs.\nGuest Tier: Walt Mueller. \nSteve Schweitzer has been part of the fly fishing retail and conservation industry for over 25 years\, including a key position as the V.P. of Sales & Marketing at Whiting Farms\, where he created the popular products “Bird Fur”\, “Fly Tyer’s Variety Pack” and the “Whiting Hackle Gauge”. \nSteve Schweitzer was born and raised in Ohio and spent his younger years fishing his parents’ farm pond for bass and bluegill with poppers. At age 7\, his grandfather taught him the craft of lure-making and he was hooked ever since. \nNow\, an avid fly fisherman and noted fly designer\, Steve enjoys backpacking\, hiking and writing about fly fishing and fly tying. Steve is author of the award-winning “A Fly Fishing Guide To Rocky Mountain National Park”\, and co-authored\, “A Fly Fishing Guide to Colorado’s Indian Peaks Wilderness Area” with Mike Kruise. His latest book is: “Designing Poppers\, Sliders\, and Divers.” \nWalt Mueller is the developer of the “milking egg” patterns. \nSpecial Addition to the meeting:  Mark Story will offer this: \nEver thought about buying a book on fishing or fly patterns but wished you could flip through it first?  Ever bought a book only to get it and find out it really wasn’t what you were looking for?  We’re going to try to address both of these situations at the June chapter meeting.  You’re invited to bring 2 or 3 of your favorite fishing or fly pattern books to the meeting.  We’ll set up a table and allow everyone to browse the selections.  Also\, I’ll put together a bibliography that can be downloaded or emailed out. \nWe’re not going to buy\, sell\, or loan these books – just peruse.  You’ll take your books home with you that night.  So\, if you’re interested in bringing some books for people to look at\, please affix you name to the front cover of each book. \nThank you and see you at the June chapter meeting. \nMark Story \nQuestions? mastory@comcast.net
