Fly Fishing for everything but Trout. August 2009
August 2009 September 2009 September Meeting In This Issue Fly Fishing for everything but Trout. Greg Stoner, MDC, will be our Speaker at the September meeting on September 24, 2009 at Queeny Park Community Room at 7:00pm. Greg Stoner is an “all species” angler – doesn’t matter as long as it pulls back! Greg enjoys fly fishing and fly tying. His favorite target species with a fly rod include bass (especially if they are hitting topwater) and crappie.

The newsletter submission deadline is the th 11 day of each month. Articles for the November December newsletter must th be submitted by November 11 . Newsletter articles can be submitted by sending to Bill Leslie at [email protected] Ozark Fly Fishers September 2009 Page 2 President’s Message by Mike Swederska Sr. The 2009 Conclave is almost upon us. After attending the FFF out in Loveland last July, I am making it a point to get to this Southern Council Conclave. You should try to attend whether you are a member of the FFF or not. The OFF will be running the Jerry Clark Casting Games from 1 pm to finish on Friday. Our all day speaker from two years ago will be one of three big names this year at the SOC Conclave. Bob Clouser is one of the guest celebrities that will be giving seminars, tying classes casting classes threw out the conclave. The other big names to attend will be Capt. Conway Bowman and Stacy Lynn. Vicky and I plan to stop by and say hi to Bob. We hope to see lots of OFF members at the conclave. With the seasons changing going into fall I start to get drawn over to my tying vice. It is the time to start looking into your used up fly box and start getting ready for winter catch and release. If you are like me, my flies are spread all over the place - the house, truck, SUV, office desk, my rod bags and my travel bags and wader pockets. I plan to start slowly consolidating and replenishing with new fresh flies. We have the Trivia night coming up. If you are not aware of this event, please check the calendar in this newsletter or our web site for the date of the event. This is our first ever Trivia night to raise money for our club. The plan is to have a fun night while raising funds to help with covering the cost to the club for outings, meetings, education and conservation. Our hopes are to raise this extra cash from people outside the membership along with any members that would like to attend the Trivia night. Past President Larry Carli will be asking for volunteers from the club to help out with light duties at the trivia night. I personally am not good at trivia but Vicky and I will be their doing whatever is needed to help out that night. As most may already know, Vicky and I just got back from Colorado and Wyoming. As I learned more about the invasive species that attack our wild trout and their habitat, I am asking all members to start making it a habit to clean all your equipment after every trip even here in Missouri. We need to do our part in stopping the spread of whirling disease and rock snot. I will not get near our precious wild trout streams such as Blue Springs, Mill or even any of our trout parks without cleaning all of my stuff. I have always cleaned my fishing equipment in the past but now I make it a point to clean my wading stuff also. Ozark Fly Fishers Calendar Starting in September, Ozark Fly Fishers club activities can be found on the web site. A special link will be found to connect the member to the club calendar. The calendar will be similar to the one found on the Yahoo Group, but should be easily accessible to all members, not just those that belong to the Yahoo Group. To add dates to this calendar contact Bill Leslie who will serve as a clearing house for all activity dates (e-mail: [email protected] or phone: 314.398.1468). In order to avoid conflicts, Board members and directors should check the calendar before scheduling activities. Ozark Fly Fishers 18th September 2009 Page 3 Annual Catch And Release Party Plans By Russ Hill Second call for the November 13-14-15 opening of the winter catch and release season at Bennett Spring. Time is fleeting. Many have already made their reservations, with requests for particular room locations or neighbors. As rooms get booked, it gets more difficult to juggle these requests, so your best bet is to reserve early. Basically this is the LAST CALL, as the next newsletter doesn’t come out until late October. The reservations may already be turned in by then. As this is written early September with temps in the 80s, the thought of cooler weather fishing sounds pretty good. We still have all classes of rooms available, but they start to go pretty fast “as the days dwindle down to a precious few.” Last year we had 87 at the buffet. See your August newsletter or the club website for the details. If you haven’t attended this gala before, give it some thought this year, especially if you’ve enjoyed the other club outings as this is usually our biggest one. We’ve been told we can have use of the party room AFTER our dinner to continue the festivities or tie flies, etc. Ask around of the regular attendees and you’ll probably decide to join us. This is a great opportunity for those new to fly fishing or to our trout parks to pick up some tips from oldtimers—and our club has plenty of those. We are again inclosing a Reservation Request with this newsletter, or print one from the website. Any questions, call Russ Hill @ 314 275 2673. Phone answered in USA, not Bombay. Stream Team # 31 Mill Creek Stream Team The Mill Creek Water Quality program will be October 10, 2009. The plan is to meet up at the Hen House in Bourbon, for breakfast at 7:00 am. We will car pool to the Bohigian mansion, where we will perform water quality work-ups on two sites. We will do a macro inspection at site one and chemical, visual and flow at both sites. I hope to get to the site by 9:00 a.m. and be finished by noon. We will then be off to fishing and fellowship. Please call Malcolm Royse at 636-329-1504 or [email protected], if you can help. Remember that we take all comers, we have a lot of fun. Current River Stream Team Saturday, October 31, 2009 10:00 a.m. This Halloween come and explore the haunts of some real creepy-crawlies! It is that time of the year when we will be conducting all four parts of the monitoring process—this includes macroinvertabrates, stream discharge, visual survey, and water chemistry. Your help is needed and will be greatly appreciated. When we monitor the macroinvertabrates, a true “creature feature” is promised. Remember it is not a requirement to have taken the Stream Team trainings in order to help out. Trained individuals will be on hand and will be eager to answer any questions and explain details relating to the Stream Team program. Don’t be concerned that you will be standing around. Ozark will have you hands-on! Whether you have attending the monitoring in the past or not, keep in mind that you will be welcomed among friends. (cont. next page) Ozark Fly Fishers September 2009 Page 4 Stream Team #31 (continued) We always have a good time! Monitoring usually takes about three hours to complete. Once completed everyone is free to fish. (By the way, this will be the last day to fish the regular season at Montauk State Park. The regular season will not open again until March 1st.) Remember to bring your waders, sack lunch, water, etc. Anyone interested in participating, please contact Scott Darrough at 314-560-1335. Educational Programs for 2009- 2010 We are in full swing getting the educational programs in place for the fall and winter. First, I want to thank the following people for their continued support: Clinton Carpenter- Project Healing Waters Brian Ellis - Casting Chair Earl Schenberg - Fly Tying Chair Jim Wallace - Educational Library Also, all of you who have been there every time I need help, thank you. This year we will have our programs through the St. Louis County Parks Department. The classes will be listed in later newsletters, when the schedule is set by the Parks people. Look for things to start in January 2010. The Members only Classes begin in November and run thru March. The classes will be on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm. We might start some classes at 6:00 pm. if the information needs more time. All classes will be rated for difficulty, but do not let that scare you off. The information learned will help you grow at whatever tying level you are at. For information, call Malcolm Royse or Earl Schenberg. The Go Fish Program will again have a Trout Fishing Section this Fall at all four sites: Bellfountain, Suson, Forest Park and Busch Wildlife. There will be a number of classes for youths where Ozark Fly Fishers will be providing instruction in casting and fishing with a fly rod. Keep an eye out for the dates as they have not been set at this time. Project Healing Waters in going strong and is really changing the lives of people, mostly our own Ozark Fly Fishers that are giving of themselves to helping a Vet. Clint Carpenter and his helpers keep telling me how much more they get then they give. Go figure something this great would be so rewarding. We have a great resource in our Library which is managed by Jim Wallace. If you have not taken advantage of it, your missing out on some great information. Also, if you have any materials your not using any more, please consider adding it into the library. Lastly, I have come to know some of the greatest people by just fishing with them. Many of them have taught me something so new or so old, but new to me. The greatness of this club is not in its meetings, but in the laughs we have taking a fly out a tree, or the lip of a trout. This is where our greatest educational programs are given and received. I recently sat in the darkest part of Missouri at 10:00 or 11:00 pm, learning some of life’s greatest lessons with what was a total stranger, now a new friend. Take a chance. Hang out with someone you don’t really know. Try it, you will like it.

Patti and Patrick Hummert are invaluable since they have held four trivia nights for the Casting for Recovery retreats. Sandy Halama is an enthusiastic supporter of Ozark and an avid trivia player who is also greatly involved. However, we are in need of lots of volunteers if this night is to be a success. We will need people to help with registration, soda, snacks, 50/50 raffle and lots of other jobs. Please contact us if you can help on that night, October 24th. Thanks. Larry Carli 618-659-1579 [email protected] Patti Hummert 314-477-9319 [email protected] Sandy Halama 314-965-7456 [email protected] Ozark Fly Fishers September 2009 Page 6 Project Healing Waters by Jim Volkman Beautiful Westover Farms near Steelville Mo. was the site of the ‘first fishing day ever’ for five Jefferson Barracks Hospital veterans. Westover Farms waived all charges while hosting this event and managers Lisa and Tom Schlueter helped Ozark angler volunteers show the veterans a full day of fly fishing. None of the vets had done any fishing before but some had attended one of our Monday night recreational therapy fly tying classes at the Hospital. Morning lessons at the Farm’s warm water ponds gave all the vets some of the basics of rod and reel, flies, knots, casting and catching (sunfish and bass). After an outdoor picnic lunch of 'dogs and brats' furnished by the Healing Waters group and cooked by the VA therapists attending, the remainder of the day was spent at the trout ponds and spring creeks. While the veterans caught more sunfish in the morning than trout in the afternoon, all caught many fish during the trip. Several of the vets caught fish on flies they had tied themselves at a previous Monday night OFF tying class. PHW caps and bandannas and OFF pins were passed out as prizes for the biggest fish, smallest fish, most fish, biggest smiles etc… OFF members and a couple recent Healing Water volunteers made the day with the vets a fun one for all. According to the vets, the VA hospital therapists and our own volunteers---our first outing of this kind was a heartening success. We plan on more outings of this kind. Our club volunteer group is slowly gaining members and should allow us to repeat this kind of recreational therapy in the future. Ozark Fly Fishers September 2009 Page 7 Montauk Outing by Mark Thalhammer Where has the summer gone? For the last few years I have always looked forward to August because that is the month for the annual Montauk Outing. This year was no different. But, how did it come and go so quickly? I guess that quickening passage of time is a sign of the aging process that we all go through. It is a good reason to make the most of the time that we have left. Getting out on the stream and meeting our fishing friends is a great way to create memories that will be with us till the end. This year, because of other commitments, Jo and I couldn’t get out on the water Friday. We arrived about 4pm and all we heard was -- lots of fish, no bites. The second thing we heard was Malcolm caught a huge brown down below the park. Of course, we asked to see the pic, and to no one’s surprise, the only picture taken was a “mental” one by none other than the fisherman himself……Malcolm. Others came forward to confirm the “story” of the huge brown but they were also seen later that day with what could be called an excessive amount of cash….can you say payoff? Luckily, the fishing for us mere mortals improved and Saturday and Sunday turned out to be great days on the water. The only thing that might have been better than the fishing was the unbelievable weather. Could it ever get any better? This couldn’t have been Missouri in August. Saturday evening we all gathered in the Searcy room for a tasty evening repast served up by the Montauk staff. Afterward we got together for an enjoyable night of tying, and lying. So many tiers and so many patterns it was hard to get around to see them all. Do all these patterns really catch fish or are they just fun to tie? Everyone had a wonderful time. If you missed it this year, make plans now so that you can be certain to make it next year.

Herwig, Jr. Hazelwood, MO Bill Croker Manchester, MO Charles Kohlbrecher Trenton, IL Fly of the Month by Earl Schenberg THE SAN JUAN WORM: Tied by: Joseph Aimonette 08/27/2009 Materials: Hook: # 10 to 14 scud hook Thread: Red 8/0 Body: Copper Wire, Micro Chenille, 2” long (red is traditional but you may use any color) Gold Bead Optional (1/8 or size best for hook chosen) This is a very simple and effective pattern that can be fished for trout as well as warm water species. How to tie: Slide bead on to hook shank, Lay down a thread base up to, hook bend securing the bead in center of hook. Attach copper wire and chenille at the bend of the hook. Wind thread back to bead and secure chenille behind bead. Pull chenille over top of bead and secure in front of bead. Wind thread to front to hook and tie down chenille one hook eye back from front of hook. Counter wrap wire from back to front as if your were putting down a ribbing pattern up to and over the bead and finish at the tie down point at the front of the hook Whip finish, apply cement. Trim chenille to length (Approx. 1 to 2 inches) singe ends with a flame.. How to fish: Dead drift near the bottom with the indicator or tight line presentations. History and information: Some people consider this a controversial fly, mostly because it has the word "worm" in its name. Don Bryant, a Westfly user who has fished New Mexico's San Juan River for 25 years, says of this fly: "The nymph pattern was first developed on the San Juan River below Navajo Dam in NW New Mexico to imitate the river's large population of aquatic worms. They are generally one inch to two inches long and live in the riverbed itself. They turn up in great numbers if you seine the bottom by turning over rocks or stirring up the muck with your wader boot. They look very much like earthworms or miniature night crawlers (some even having the distinctive worm collar. They come in a variety of mostly neutral colors. The trout feed on them extensively and find flamboyant colors an added attraction. The trout definitely take the SJW fly pattern to be exactly what it is designed to represent, the worms of the San Juan River. Ozark Fly Fishers September 2009 Page 9 Federation of Fly Fishers by Bob Temper Whirling disease has made headlines and presented much discussion in recent years. While discussion has faded from the headlines the disease has not gone away. A summary report of progress in research and management of Whirling Disease in the United States was posted on the Federation of Fly Fishers web site section “in the News” on August 25, 2009. The report in which FFF participated is now available for downloading from the web page: http://www.fedflyfishers.org The report provides new information on the management and research aspects of this harmful trout parasite and invasive species. Whirling disease presents an informative case study in a variety of ways – as an exotic species, a parasite, a fish pathogen, a perceived natural catastrophe, a perceived non-event, a threat to wild and native salmonids, a risk to fish culture, and collaborative research and management. The work of researchers continues to contribute to a greater understanding of the disease ecology and to a better understanding of host parasite interactions and invasive species ecology. Current research is focused on understanding the dynamics of the ecology at a landscape level, characterizing the mechanisms of resistance in hosts, refining risk assessments, and improving management tools. The breadth of research that has taken place since the discovery of the disease has expanded our understanding of this parasite, but also revealed how much there is still to understand. As researchers continue to examine the complexities, a better understanding of this parasite will emerge and management strategies will become increasingly effective at protecting and enhancing salmonid populations. Ozark Fly Fishers September 2009 Page 10 The Winter Chili Tie - In by Earl Schenberg The Winter Chili Tie In at Marlin's club house will be on Oct 17th. The Club decided to have another one since the first one was a hit. The theme will be ”The Flies of Winter." So get to your vises and begin practicing your favorite flies for the winter season which begins on Nov. 13 2009. We always celebrate that opening date with our club event, "Winter Catch and Release outing" At Bennett Spring's, Sand Springs Resort. This is your chance to show off your very best winter flies as well as help those need help getting into this season. It is also one of the best opportunities to learn many new tricks as to how to tie the fly that will fool the big one in the clear cold waters of winter. Volunteers are needed to bring a dish/pot of your favorite recipe, chili or otherwise. Any food contribution will be greatly appreciated. Please contact me so that I can co-ordinate the items for a well rounded offering and a delectable variety of tangy hot and cold foods. Thanks for your help.

Last month I missed my column deadline because I was on a fishing trip with some good friends. I totally zoned out on the date (which is a good thing) and by the time I got back to civilization it was too late. For many of us fisher folk, one of the common denominators of our experiences include a good, cold beer at the end of the day. Some camp coffee to kick-off and a barley and hops beverage to celebrate the day’s end makes for great bookends. Like so many things in life, we all have very different tastes and preferences. Some like food spicy, others mild. Some like blondes, others brunettes, or maybe even a redhead (or something in between all of the above). Some like hot weather; some like it cold…some like rain, others like it dry. Some like their coffee strong, others weak. Some folks like fishing for bass (the coarse fish, as the snooty among us refer to it) and some like fishing for the small scales (trout)…saltwater, fresh water (budget determines some of this)…worms, lures, or flies…and so on and so forth. Different strokes for different folks makes for an interesting tapestry…and as I have mentioned before, makes for a better trip around this ball we call earth. And, that my friends, brings me to BEER. If you are a beer drinker (and you know who you are!), you have certain likes and dislikes (or degrees thereof). Some like the Anheuser Busch family of beers (also now known as Belgium beer, not to be confused with Belgium-style ales) and some like Miller (now a South African company). Within those families you have the Bud and Bud Light fight (for my palette, Bud Light is the poorest excuse for beer known to man – the AB attorneys can contact my attorney – Sal Schmuck – if need be). Coors (now a Canadian company) used to be smuggled across the border in car trunks (what a special and exciting time that was for us). Others like their microbrews (my preference…and maybe the only real American beer). These loyalties are bonds that compete with allegiances to political parties, union affiliations, nationalities, regions, sports teams (Cubs vs. Cards, etc. – and by the way, the Cubs suck), chocolate preferences (white, milk, and dark – and even here, semi-sweet, bittersweet, and extra dark), and everything in between. So, we have our loyalties and at the end of the day, you are allowed to drink any damn thing you want to (until the government tells you otherwise…or taxes it until you can’t afford it). What you do with your money is your business. Which brings me to my point…because I care about my readership (does anyone really read this column? I have no idea, but if you are out there, I have your back!) and want to help you save some money in this time of economic turmoil. You can’t be deprived of your beer, if nothing else. I want you to think about making the most of your money. Beer costs money. Water is free (unless you pay a buck a bottle for it…I have already randomly ranted about the evils of bottled water in previous columns, so I will not do it here…what you waste your money on is your business). For many years, we had nothing but regular beer and all of the variations. Near beer (non-alcoholic) has had various incarnations and reincarnations (even LA Beer, low alcohol beer) without much success. Light beer stormed on the scene with Miller Lite (Tastes Great! Less Filling! Maybe Both? Neither? Depends on your taste buds)…then speaking of buds, out came Bud Light (another Belgium beer, not to be confused with Belgium-style ale) and after spending a gamillion dollars on advertising has become the number one beer in America. I thought we had hit beer bottom (or is that beer belly?). But, NO! The masterminds of Beer Universe met secretly in the bottom of a Free Mason Temple, did séances, and solicited advice from the Dark Side. They got approval from the John Birch Society and a final sign-off from the International Conspiracy Triumvirate and were allowed to pour water in leftover beer and market it as a healthy alternative to the existing beers on the market. As a result, we were exposed to Michelob Ultra and Bud Select. Less than 100 calories! Take half a beer, add water, and market it. Not to be outdone, Miller rolled out MGD64…64 calories…take half of a half beer, add a little more water, and market it. Again, not to be outdone, that Belgium company, Anheuser Busch took half of a half beer with water added and added a little more water and chiseled those calories down to 55 – the new BudSelect55. . Most amazing of all, is that people actually buy that stuff…and it is not cheap. Coming up next…beer flavored water with negative calories. You will loose weight when you drink it. What exactly is my point (and do I really need to have one)? Tip of the day…if you like the “lighter beers” on the market, save yourself some serious money…buy what’s on sale and just add water. As for me, I am going to buy the good stuff and drink less of it. It is the least I can do for myself. You think about that…TL You can visit all of my past columns on my blog at http://tylivingstone.blogspot.com and if you want to drop me a line you can e-mail me at [email protected]. I’d love to hear from you.
