Need some sign-ups: FW Outing: John Scarborough Sunfish Spectacular, 2nd of May 2026

We need folks to sign up early. The headcount is needed to buy the correct amount of food and make sure that we have enough volunteers to make a successful event.

Also by signing up early you save $10. ($20 for early sign-up, $30 for show up).

Online registration closes at midnight on Wednesday, April 29th. We like early online registrations to give David a better count of attendees; he can more accurately purchase the correct amount food for our lunch. (It takes two days to thaw the hamburger patties and a thawed hamburger cooks quicker. So the food will be purchased on April 29th.)

Reminder New Meeting Location Niko Niko’s for Tuesday March 31, 2026 meeting; Fly Fishing the White River

Eric Richardson Leave a comment

Date: Tuesday, March 31, 2026

Time: Meeting Time 6 – 9 pm (6-7 pm social hour) with meeting from 7-9 pm.

New Meeting Location: Niko Niko’s located at 1040 W Sam Houston Pkwy N, Houston, TX 77043

Important: This is a new location. We are trying to limit the noise issues we have had at previous locations.

Have you wanted to fly fish a world class trout fishery without having to travel thousands of miles to get there? The White River in the Arkansas Ozarks is widely considered the “Trout Capital of the US” and is a world-class destination for catching trophy-sized trout. The fishery is primarily a tailwater system created by the Bull Shoals Dam, which provides a consistent flow of cold, oxygenated water that allows trout to thrive year-round across more than 90 miles of river. This is a one day drive from Houston and a great fishery

Eric Richardson will discuss getting to the White River, best times to fish, species and stocking of trout, hatches, targeting rising trout, and other information on this amazing fishery. You will also find out why a guide will tell you “God save the Queen” when you miss a hookset on a dry fly.

Date: Tuesday, March 31, 2026

Time: Meeting Time 6 – 9 pm (6-7 pm social hour) with meeting from 7-9 pm.

Meeting Location: Niko Niko’s located at 1040 W Sam Houston Pkwy N, Houston, TX 77043
