PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING TO HELP CLUB TEACH FLY FISHING

To all BC FlyFishers Members,

We are heading to Pine Creek in PA and staying in Wellsboro PA for our first away trip of the season…
Wednesday May 27th – Friday May 29th.

If you are interested in going or have any questions please call me at 607-727-1826 or email at apalombaro8457@gmail.com.
I have held 10 rooms at the Penns Well Lodge in Wellsboro. We have a rate of
$130.95 + tax a night. If you want to set up a double to split the cost, these rooms have two beds.
You can call them at 570-724-3463 and ask for a room in the Lodge held for BC FlyFishers/Anthony Palombaro. You will pay for your room directly with the hotel and do not have to go through me.
When you reserve your room, please send me a message as I will compile a list of who is going so we can set up travel and fishing logistics before we go.
This is the room type I have on hold for us.

We will be looking to fish Pine Creek Canyon and other access sites on Pine Creek and it’s famous tributaries.
As we get closer to the trip we will get the group together to coordinate.
Here’s a link to a presentation on the Pine Creek area given to the Twin Tiers FFI club… you can fast forward past the business part

You are welcome to join our mailing list, join our club and participate in our meetings, fishing trips and other events as well. This is optional, you do not have to join our club to participate in this course.

Once the weather allows, our club has fishing days on ponds and on the different creeks and rivers that bless our area. We set up fishing buddies on these outings so there will be someone to help you on the water as well. There is no charge for this as a member of our club.

You will leave with a sense of what fly fishing is all about plus a booklet with background on what we talk about… links to help cut through the confusion on equipment choices to help you choose your first rod, reel and line, and videos you can access as you proceed on your fly-fishing adventure.

Cost – $50 per student. Drinks and snacks included

Where – West Endicott Fire Station 113 N. Page Ave, Endicott, N.Y. – We have a gym in the building where you will learn to cast with expert guidance. This year we are hoping to do the casting part outdoors. More details to come.
