ASBWPA Clean up, Sept. 06, 2008
October 1, 2008 – 10:15 am
Instead of doing the Gates Clean up this year a few of us decided to go down to Mio and do a float and clean trip on a stretch of the Au Sable that really needs all the help it can get. The Trophy Waters get pounded by canoe traffic and those of you that have [...]
CARP!

Yes they are quite unattractive. Ask anyone that has been lucky enough to get one on the fly and they will tell you that the battle is well worth having to come face to face with anything this hideous.
This one came from the Portage River though I’m not gonna say where.

The NBB spring outting to Rockwell was a few weeks ago. Sorry for the late report but I was hoping to get some pics to go along with the write up I got from one of our new members. Apparently no one had their camera or those that did opted to leave it in the [...]
White Bass Bonanza
May 30, 2008 – 11:25 am
As many of you already know the white bass are in pretty thick right now in the Maumee. For us fly anglers it seems the big trick is (no surprise) water clarity and hitting it on a day when there actually is some. Mike and I hit it last Friday and there was 4-6″ of [...]
