Northern Lights Fly Tyers - Trout Unlimited Edmonton http://www.nlft.org News from the Northern Lights - Trout Unlimited Edmonton Chapter Thu, 10 May 2012 18:17:53 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Grayling Study – Call for Anglers http://www.nlft.org/2012/05/10/grayling-study-call-for-anglers/ http://www.nlft.org/2012/05/10/grayling-study-call-for-anglers/#comments Thu, 10 May 2012 18:17:16 +0000 KenM http://www.nlft.org/?p=739 We are in the planning stages for Year 2 of our Grayling Study.  We need volunteer anglers to go out and fish tributaries of the Pembina River and record information such as size, GPS location, and other characteristics of the site and fish.  The club will provide collection materials, maps, gas money and instructions.  Anglers will be paired up in the next few weeks  and we will begin fishing shortly after the rivers open in mid-June. 

If you would like to participate or would like more information, please send your name, email address and phone number in an email to President @ nlft.org  (without the spaces)

Its that time of year where we socialize outside of the club and go out as friends and family for fishing trips and socials. I just need to know who is willing and wanting to share their contact info with others.

I am creating a contact list, rather than chasing and handing out paper permission slips and gathering them all back … I am posting here and in the forum and will be available at the Wednesday night meetings too.

I am asking those who want their NAME, NUMBER AND OR EMAIL listed for availability to others, to please PM me with the required details. REMEMBERto PM me as it is then kept to a particular list and the General can not see your details. You also can email me at Members@nlft.org Subject title: Contact list.

All I require to create this list is: First and Last Name, phone number and/or email. If you choose to only list name/number or name/email that is fine too. Please only list what you want to share and nothing else.
I will leave it up to you as individuals to fine tune contact details after direct contact has been made with another party.

If you have Questions or concerns please MSG/PM me and I will help you out.. The sooner I gather the info the better for all!

Thank you Executive/Director of Membershp
Kristi

  • Purchase a ticket – details here.
  • Volunteer to help. Sign up with Dave T at one of the weekly meetings.
  • Donate some flies at the weekly meetings.

The Edmonton chapter traditionally donates boxes of flies that were tied by our members. These flies are one of many silent auction items that will be available.  It`s a great event, please participate!  Our free-tye night at the club on April 25 would be a great place to work on your donation flies.
