Under the heading of little known facts, when the Romans ( or whom ever it was) were putting together the calendar they named the month after April with the hope in mind that all of the land MAY be done with what seemed like never ending rains. With that said, let’s take a look at the great raffle prizes we have up for grabs at the May 3rd meeting.
Winner’s choice of either an Intouch Euro-nymphing 10 foot 2 weight Competition Nymph rod or a V-Access 9 foot 6 weight rod with a matching reel.
Need an extra reel? Take a look at this GP model in black from Albright. While it is rated for 3/4 weight use, its oversize spool makes it more than adequate for 5 or 6 wt lines and backing. It has a super smooth drag and can be set up for right or left hand retrieve.
With the expected higher than average stream conditions it would be wise to make use of a safety wading staff. This Aventik four section spun aluminum collapsible staff will provide the confidence needed to safely reach the productive pieces of water. Comes with a neoprene belt sheath which keeps the staff handy when needed.
