Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing - Appleton, WI Program

Day 1 of our annual spring fly rod building weekend. True spines are found on the rods and all guides are marked and put into place, ready for wrapping after Jeff demonstrates the proper technique. Big thanks to my APL’s Jeff and Liz for putting on such a great event for our group.

Mark you calendars for April 22nd! Our good friends at Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing - Appleton, WI Program will be hosting this years IF4 Fly Fishing Film festival at the De Pere Cinema.
