SOFF DINNER MEETING FEATURING DENNY RIKARDS
May 18, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
SOFF DINNER MEETING FEATURING DENY RIKARDS
Our next General Meeting will be held May 18th at the Grants Pass Golf Course. Our speaker will be Denny Rickards.
For the past thirty years Denny Rickards has had an opportunity to fish and guide anglers over some of the most challenging trophy trout waters in the Western United States. His simplistic approach and techniques on presentation have accounted for browns over 20 pounds, cutthroats to 15 pounds and rainbows in excess of 16 pounds.
Over 250 days a year are spent doing what he loves best: guiding, writing, tying flies, conducting fly fishing schools, and field testing developing tackle manufacturer’s products.
As a professional fly tier, his suggestive patterns have appeared in various outdoor magazines and are on display at Cushners Fly Fishing Museum in Florence, Oregon. Based on past reviews, his books and companion videos are now considered the “bibles” for fly fishing lakes.
When he isn’t fishing or guiding, many hours are spent studying trout behavior, their habitat, and the various insects found within their environment.
His knowledge and ability to teach others were a prerequisite to establishing his fly fishing schools/clinics which have become a priority for anglers seeking the ultimate from their angling experiences.
Program title: Stillwater Presentations
Denny’s program is aimed at putting you properly equipped, in the right place, at the right time with enough basic knowledge to be successful. He will be covering everything you need to know to be a successful Stillwater fisherman, doing things right and avoiding those things which will not contribute to your success.
Make your reservations at soff.org. Social hour 6pm, dinner at 7pm, speaker to follow. The presentation is open to all. We are unable to accept dinner reservations less than 5 days before the dinner date.
