BV Fly Tyers Club sponsors Fly Fishing class

The Bella Vista Fly Tyers Club will sponsor a Basic Fly Fishing Course. The course will be held from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, April 7, at the Lake Avalon Park Pavilion. Each course student will participate in one hour of class instruction and one hour of fly casting technique instruction and practice.

Cost of the course is $20 for non-club members ($10 of which will cover a year’s club membership dues) and $10 for club members. Students up to 16-years-old can attend the course at no charge. Class size is limited to the first 30-people who sign up and pay the fee. Class will be held rain or shine. Contact David Barfield at 479-553-8194 to enroll and for more information.

The Bella Vista Fly Tyers Club is a fishing, conservation, and service club consisting of approximately 150 members. This group of men and women share a common interest in fishing (both warm and cold-water species) found in the local streams and lakes of Bella Vista. The club also promotes lake conservation, recreational activities, and conducts service projects throughout NW Arkansas.

The Fly Tyers Club meets every Thursday in Riordan Hall in Bella Vista, beginning at 9 a.m. for a social hour followed by a meeting from 10 to 11 a.m.
