EVENTS

NSFF CLUB MEETINGS

The club's first meeting since COVID lockdown will be 17MAY22.  The NSFF club meets on the third Tuesday of each month, except January.  Whilst the meetings start at 1930hrs members do gather earlier and socialize.  The meeting venue is at the Birkenhead RSA (downstairs), Recreation Drive, Birkenhead, Auckland 0626.  If you are an interested in the club please feel free to attend and do make yourself known to a Committee member or call/txt Barrie on 021-925006 or by email barrie@flyfishinginxs.kiwi

The North Shore FlyFishers Club (Inc.) was formed in 2003 to promote freshwater and saltwater fly fishing among the recreational fishing community on Auckland's North Shore and adjacent suburbs. The Club has approximately 70 members at the last count and is continuing to grow at a steady rate.

Why join a fly fishing Club?

Dave McLellan, NSFF club patron, founding member and former NZ Flyfishing Team Captain, put it well when he said:
"Although most of us go fishing with a friend, the sport of fly fishing has always been primarily a solitary pastime.  Because of this, anglers tend not to be clubby people by nature, since you can't go along to a club and actually fish.  Yet anglers who join a club and actually fish without question become better fishermen. A good club should be a place of learning and entertainment with a fishing theme and should have a solid base of experienced anglers who are prepared to share their knowledge. This knowledge sharing should not just be about technique but cover such things as safety around water, tackle choice and care, how to tie your own flies, and information on how to find new fishing water."

 

The NSFF full year starts on the 1st of April and the half year on the 1st of October.
