Well folks, March has definitely “come in like a lion.” To help keep you warm despite the frigid temperatures, Fish Tales Fly Shop is having a 3-day sale on select clothing. For Saturday, March 1, 2014 through Monday, March 3, 2014 customers will save 20% on the select products (while supplies last) from Simms and Patagonia. Check out this link for some products available: http://www.fishtalesflyshop.com/2014/03/01/march-in-like-a-lion-sale%E2%80%A6-three-days-only-march-1-3-2014/ Also, what better way to spend a frigid Sunday then learning how to improve your nymphing techniques from one of Canada’s leading competition anglers – John Nishi. You can apply what he shares with you to your nymphing strategy in the coming months. John has been a representative on Canada’s fly fishing team for several years. Here is a brief bio on John (found online at the Innovative Fly Fishers.com forum.) “I started competitive fly fishing in 2003 while attending the 1st Canadian National Fly Fishing Championships and Conservation Symposium in Manitoba, with a hard-core & talented group of fishers from the Northwest Territories. I particularly enjoy competitive fly fishing for the camaraderie, travel and immersion in new landscapes and cultures, and continual learning opportunities it presents.” As always, seminars start at 1:00, are free and open to the public, and first ones in the doors get the seats! Hot coffee will be available to warm you up!

Hi my name is Kyle Snarr (of the Canadian Youth Team) I'm trying to start up a Fly Fishing League in Calgary, Alberta area and was curious as to how many of you would be interested - or know of someone that might be interested - in joining the new League and participating at a few of the competitions that we'll be holding this spring, summer and fall? You do not need any previous competition experience, i want to promote competitive fly fishing because you get to meet alot of new people, learn some great new techniques and tricks, and is alot of fun! Please respond on this thread to be registered and added to the mailing list (there are no fees or charges to be a part of this League). Cheers, Kyle Snarr
