Our speaker this month is Christopher Taylor.

Chris' father introduced him to fly fishing at eleven years of age on the waters of New Hampshire. His interest and expertise grew to the point where, during the summers of his college years, he guided clients for trout and salmon in Alaska.

His presentation will be in two parts. The first being the river restoration project underway on the San Juan. The river is experiencing lower flows than in the past. Though it is still considered one of the top tail waters in the country, concerned fisherman and guides, along with fish and game took steps to keep it that way. There have been four separate projects completed and others in the works for the future. The success of these projects has surpassed everyone’s expectations. The areas where work has been done now hold more fish and insects than in the past. The presentation will cover these projects from start to finish.

The second part of the presentation will be on nymph fishing. Fly selection, rigging and presentation will all be covered. You will look at nymph fishing with a whole new attitude.

Hope to see you at the meeting!
