The chapter is pleased to host Terry at our February meetring
Terry will present a program on custom fishing rods and rod blank design. He will try to demystify some of the terms of the industry, and explain why different rods are used for different methods of fishing.
Terry has owned his custom rod business for over 15 years and has a loyal following for both single hand and 2-hand fly rods. You'll be able to see some interesting examples of work that you can have done to your next rod.

Thanks to the work of our combined TVTU and CRTU members for putting together our outing schedule for the year
The outing at Timothy Lake in early June is popular so you may want to see if there is a campsite to reserve at N. Arm campground. Many first come, first serve sites available or share a spot with another member.
See the Outing Schedule for 2019 |
