SUMMARY:Wet Buns Outing
DESCRIPTION:Our annual celebration of the drizzle season\, once again – finally! Normal Northwest weather! Time to bask in the dark of the cold and wet again!!! \nBut even better … \nChums are staging in the shallow estuaries\, the resident Coho are there for those who know where to cast\, and the biggest sea runs are looking for that last meal before a long winter in a little stream. \nCioppino (Fisherman’s Stew)\, served with toasted bread\, always tastes best around a big fire. This is the best “Outing” meal of the year as far as many are concerned\, and is a recommended must-do trip. We will gather at the group camp area at Penrose Point State Park\, with dinner prepping starting around 4:00. I know that cuts into some fishing time\, but it gets dark early these days. We need a few volunteers to crack crabs\, chop fish\, shell shrimp\, etc. \nBring your favorite cold-weather appetizer or dessert\, and the club does the rest. RSVP for headcount and bring a sturdy bowl and spoon for dinner. \nThe fishing can be done from beaches\, but is done better from a boat. Launches at Vaughn Bay\, Allyn\, Latimer’s Landing\, Treasure Island\, and Von Geldern Cove are all good jumping-off spots for South Sound fly fishing. \nOrange and white flies – along with olive clousers and dali lamas – work well. Chums like anything small and green. \nSo\, cover your buns\, dress warm\, and join us for this fun and delicious event. We here at the club laugh at this kind of weather. Because we’re rugged individualists (like everyone else) and like our fish wet and cold\, don’t we? \nMembers\, if you can take another member in your boat to fish at the outing\, please acknowledge this in the “I will assist with” in the RSVP so that we can organize members to fish with you.

SUMMARY:November 2025 Club Dinner Meeting Featuring John Shewey
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our November 2025 monthly club meeting with John Shewey! \nJohn Shewey has been accused of being a deadbeat slacker\, but he steadfastly refutes such charges and insists instead that he is a lifelong fly-fishing addict. He usually admits to being the editor-in-chief of American Fly Fishing\, unless you are mad at the magazine\, in which case John is likely to deny any involvement. His long career as a writer and photographer has produced countless magazine articles and about 20 books. \nA couple of his books are pretty good. John’s most recent titles are Spey Flies\, Their History and Construction\, Classic Steelhead Flies\, and The Hummingbird Handbook. When not plunging into a cold river over his wader tops in pursuit of summer-run steelhead or wearing out boot leather exploring tiny trout streams in the desert\, John spends considerable time on the verge of cardiac arrest following his Weimaraner around Oregon’s chukar country. \nSo\, come together for John’s presentation on fly fishing for steelhead! \n\n🍻 New dinner meeting venue: The Hall at Occidental\nThis is our second dinner meeting at the new spot: The Hall at Occidental\, 589 Occidental Avenue South\, Seattle. \nHere’s the lowdown on the location: \n\nIt’s directly across the street (west side) from the northwest corner of Lumen Field (where the Seahawks play).\nIt’s kitty-corner from that big parking lot to the north.\nThe area is well-lit\, secure\, and has been seriously upgraded with fancy condos and offices—if you’ve been to a game lately\, you know the drill. It’s not technically downtown or Pioneer Square. It’s its own cool spot.\nYou can get here from basically anywhere (I-90\, I-5\, 99\, Light Rail\, bus\, surface streets—the whole kit and caboodle).\nParking: Lumen Field lots close early (6 pm!)\, so don’t count on them. Good news is there’s convenient parking right next door. Just be sure to give yourself some extra time to get settled!\n\nThe venue is run by the same folks who run a bunch of beer halls (which\, let’s face it\, is a perfect spot for a fly fishing club!). We’ll be upstairs in a private mezzanine that seats 40 people. \nGET YOUR NAME ON THE LIST EARLY TO GRAB A SEAT! \nDinner:\nJust like last month\, the meeting itself is FREE! \nHowever\, the food and drinks are “no-host\,” meaning you cover your own tab. You can order whatever you want off the Hall’s huge menu—dinner\, appetizers\, beer\, soda\, whatever your heart desires! No more pre-set meals!! \n(Heads up: they tack on a mandatory 20% gratuity and 10.35% tax\, so factor that in.) \n💪 We Need You There!\nThis new venue is a test for us\, and it’s a test for The Hall! We need a solid turnout to show them we’re a good partner—translation: we need to show them we spend enough on grub and drinks to make it worth their while. \nSo please\, sign up as early as you can and show up! We need to pack the room to make these dinner meetings a regular thing!
