Justin Spencer Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 I was thinking about swinging down to conclave today for a few hours, if you've never been it's pretty cool. Lots of fly tyers doing cool things, good talks and demonstrations and lots of fly fishermen. I think Brian Wise is doing a talk today on fishing the NFoW, and tomorrow on fishing for big fish on the NFoW. May go down and try to learn something, I have a feeling he's been holding out on me. Never quit learning.

snagged in outlet 3 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 We went. My dad was honored as a Fly Fishing Legend for hte FFF and put on the Legends Banner. They will have his bibliography and picture at all future events. He was the second Ozark Fly fishers President. He served 3 seperate terms as President of OFF. He was a Southern Area Council President and National Federation Treasurer for over 25 years. My brother and I hopped around and fished several places on the White with 2 units running all the time for 3 days. Very dissapointing water generation but we caught lots of fish up to a fat 17" brown my brother caught. I won the distance competion at the casting games. Anyone is welcome to come and hold the trophy if they like. Nothing better than winning that against my brother on the weekend my dad gets honored. Dave Whitlock signed my shirt and we spent some time reminiscing with him. Very nice weekend. Headed back to Mountain Home next weekend for our annual trip to fish and camp with the boys.
