TVTU Events Spring – Fall 2025
Tuesday April 22, 2025: TVTU Board of Directors Meeting via Zoom. Contact Peter Gray, President, bccpjgray@yahoo.com.
Wednesday May 14, 2025: Nick Wheeler, Euro Nymphing in the Pacific Northwest, Portland Fly Shop https://theportlandflyshop.com/about/; Euro Nymphing is a short line nymphing method that uses very thin leaders and tippets, weighted flies, and a piece of colored line known as a sighter. All of this is used together to suspend the nymphs off the bottom while the angler maintains direct contact with the flies, which greatly improves strike detection.
