SILKHDH 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2013 Hey, Just wanted to know if anyone out there is in Kansas. I live in Mcpherson and would enjoy meeting some new friends with the same fly fishing and tying interest that I have. I mainly do warm water fly fishing but do as much trout fishing as I can. That depends on the season here of course. Well, and the ice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SILKHDH 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2013 jdecoudres, Have you ever been to Flat Land Fly Fishers in Wichita. IS a club they have. I went once and it was cool but I just couldn't drive 60 miles every time to the meetings. Also, on Washington street in Wichita there is a place called Zeiners. They have tying stuff and I hear they have a fly tying night. You can just show up and tie and talk. I've never gone but it sounds fun to me. Buy the way, Im 51 years old as of yesterday and I fish alot. How about you? P.s. I may be 50 but I still rock on the guitar and mountain bike. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoyt archery 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2013 I'm in Wichita. Check out Ark River Anglers. It's a cool fly shop on south Rock Road. The owner is a bit of a "know it all", but I think he means well. A young guy named Shawn that works there helped my casting. Change that, he taught me to cast! I'd call what I was doing before stylish flinging! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdecoudres 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2013 Im 31 almost 32 and I am fairly new to the fly tying and and fly fishing. I only been doing it for 2 or 3 years. My parents have a house on the lake at branson so i fish tanneycomo quit often. I still need some learning experiance as everything I know i basically learned on my own. I have also heard of both of those places and been to both. ark river is the best in my opion but I think they are also a little high on prices.
