Presentation Synopsis

Learn some hard earned tips and tricks for fishing the South Fork of the Kings River. At our

September 5 th General Meeting. Long time club members Brian Loven and Bill Bruce will be
sharing how best to approach what many consider to be our Club’s “Home Water.” In under two hours you can reach this user friendly river and escape the heat of the Valley. Brian and Bill will go over locations to fish, gear and flies to use and techniques guaranteed to speed up the learning curve for success on this great river. Later in the month (date TBD), the boys will host a club outing to the Upper Kings and will put on a short clinic on how to rig and fish a Euro set up. Fall is the perfect time to fish the Kings. Water flows are ideal and allow maximum access to most of the river. It’s still warm enough to wet wade comfortably and the fish are putting on the feed bag preparing for the winter ahead. The class will be in the morning and then club members will fish until lunch. The club will host a lunch for attendees and stories can be swapped. Following lunch there will be ample time to to fish more spots before the trip back home. In order to participate in the lunch you will need to register for the outing through the club’s website.

See you at the meeting!

Our Mission

We are a FEDERATION OF FLY FISHERS ffiliated club, a national organization whose goal, like ours, is to promote the wonderful sport of fly-fishing as well as protect our natural resources. We promote catch and release, education, conservation, and above all, encourage and help those who desire to learn more about all aspects of fly-fishing.

Fly Fishers for Conservation (FFFC) was organized in 1961 by a group of devoted fly fishers deeply concerned with the preservation of trout and all game fish, their environment, and the quality of fishing. Our club has maintained two goals since that time: To foster and promote the sport of angling with artificial flies. To protect, conserve and increase our angling resources.

Fly Fishers for Conservation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt non-profit organization. This means you can use your contribution as a tax deduction. The club gets revenue from member-ship dues and the annual fundraiser dinner. We try to contribute to conservation issues in the area and to our youth with our Trout in the Classroom program, the No Child Left Inside program and by holding a Youth Fly-Fishing Academy annually. The club is al-ways in need of funds. Please consider donating. You may send a check to Fly Fishers for Conservation at PO Box 1192, Clovis, CA 93613. Your donations will be greatly appreciated and they will help the club fulfill its obligations.
