Seneca Valley Trout Unlimited

Revealed: Top Secret Locations

Presentation by Ms. Shannon Moore

Our recent Programs have dealt with the HOW of fishing. How to fish a nymph, a streamer, a dry fly, or how to present one of these patterns, effectively, or how to approach the quarry - be it a trout or some warm water fish like a bass or pike.

Since, by now, we have all absorbed these HOW teachings and techniques, it is now time to find out where the fish are located. Shannon who leads the Watershed Management Section of Frederick County will reveal all the LOCATIONS of the fish population in the nearby streams and rivers of Frederick County at our April 25 meeting.

In addition to revealing the locations of the Frederick County fish populations, Shannon will also enlighten us about the programs she has help establish and implement to protect and restore stream habitat in Frederick County. It is these Programs that are helping to protect and restore our streams/habitat so that they will continue to produce and hold catchable populations of fish.

Once again, spring is here and it is time for a casting clinic by Joe Cap. Joe is a FFF certified casting instructor who has given clinics for SVTU for the past two years. His clinics run for four hours and will get a beginner started or polish the skills of the well heeled caster. Joe concentrates on good casting form, believing that the rest will follow, and in my case I have found that to be true. All who have participated have had nothing but good things to say about Joe and the results of his instruction. The date of the clinic is May 12 from 10 to 2 at the small county park just east of Laytonsville on Sundown Road. Cost is $40 and Joe donates a portion to the Chapter. Participation is limited to 10 and I have a waiting list from last year so send me your fee as soon as you can. For more information call me , 301-253-6892.
