White River Group Trip
This past week six of us skipped town for two days of fishing the White River in Arkansas. With cabin fever setting in we booked this trip to get outside and see some country and possible stick a giant brown. Although we missed our opportunities at some of the legends of the white we had a great time together. We got two decent browns and stuck some bows and cut throat trout on bobbers. Throwing the big sinking lines can strain on you. The whole time we were there we all secretly were wishing we were in the Catskills! A little over a month now until Hendricksons!!!

Materials for sale
Buy/Sell/Trade with others
I have seen some of the museums material collections going up for sale and they are extensive. Lots of salt and freshwater materials for sale below msrp. The volunteers have been working endlessly the past few weeks to sort the materials. When large collections are donated they are cataloged and the majority is sold to raise money. This is a win win.
To learn more about Fly Fest 2022 go to the Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum.
