Are you up for a fly fishing challenge? The club is holding a 3-Fish Challenge for club members that concludes on October 15th. So far, it’s off to a great start and several members have successfully completed the challenge. It is not too late and there is still plenty of time to participate. You could be the BIG winner!
The challenge is simple. Catch three or more freshwater species in ONE day with a fellow club member. Complete the challenge and you will be recognized at the Annual Banquet on October 29th.
The PVFF member that catches the most unique species will be the BIG winner and will be awarded a BIG prize at the Annual Banquet in October. In addition to the Big prize, the winner will be bestowed all club bragging rights for the year! As
the old Master Card commercial would say – that is priceless!
There are only a few rules to follow. All fish must be caught on a fly. Entrants must provide the fly name and size used for each fish entered in the challenge, and the location(s). Given the history of fisherman and their ability to tell fishing tales — you must fish with a club member so that your day’s catch is verified. A picture would be nice, but is not necessary.
Examples of freshwater fish species ‘for the challenge’ may include (but is not limited to) the following: brown trout, rainbow trout, brook trout, golden trout, smallmouth bass, sun fish/blue gills, largemouth bass, crappy, catfish, white chub/fallfish.
Join the PVFF 3-Fish challenge. There is a simple form to complete which you can download from the home page of our club website or you can send me an email (lbforte@verizon.net) and I will email you a copy. Good luck and happy fishing!
