Default 2013 National Fly Fishing Championships - Calgary, Alberta

One or two Alberta anglers needed to join our experienced team at this year National event. This is a week long event that will need your full commitment. September 22-27 are the dates. Two days of practice and three of competition. Three river sessions and possibly two stillwaters will make up the event. $300.00 entry fee. NO Indicators Allowed! This is a grueling week, so be in shape. We will be rooming together as a team with nightly meetings.

Equipment Needed - a minimum of one 10 foot #6 or #7 weight rod with a variety of lines. Sinking lines in 2,4,6 or 3,5,7 will do as well a floating or midge tip.

Two of the following - #4, #5, or #6 river rod setups for the Bow River.

Experience would be an asset but passionate fast learning anglers will be considered.

An unbeatable experience for any Fly Fisher person

I am on Duckbrat's team this year, and have fished a couple competitions now.

I have to say, that fishing in these competitions is a great experience. If you love to flyfish, and enjoy a challenge, this might be for you.

Looking forward to fishing with the team this year.
