WNY Fly Fishing -News
I just joined Fly Fishers International here in WNY the Eastern Waters Council and ran into a whole bunch of old customers and friends i haven't seen in years. The group is made up of newbies to very advanced fly fishermen and has several women who have joined, and our club president is a woman. we have fly tying every tues morning and meetings once a month at Charles E. Burchfield Nature & Art Center 2001 Union Road West Seneca, NY 14224 Contact 716-677-4843. if you want to join or just look into the club the web page is down right now but here it is www.lake-erie-fff.org. the club has many programs for beginners to advanced and would like to get more young people into this great sport. the cost $45.00 a year and they have discounts for seniors youth etc, so look it up
