Each month we will be scheduling the dates for those months from January through December where the trip destinations and dates are TBD.
Check back often to see the changes.

Fly Swap!

  • Here are the rules of the Fly Swap when we do one.
  • Anyone can initiate the Fly Swap. Contact us and we will send the email out with you as the Swap Initiator.
  • An email will be sent out from the Swap Initiator, via the OSLC Men's Fly Fishing Ministry email, with a Defined Pattern or Type of Fly that we will tie.
  • We will need an email confirmation of who will be participating.
  • Obviously if it's a Defined Pattern to tie, you will only be tying that pattern and variations of it only. Not a pattern of your liking.
  • If it's Type of Fly to tie, like Dry, Wet, Chironomid, Terestrial, Streamer, etc., then we will need to know what each person will be tying.
  • Please include this in the email stating you will be participating.
  • Once we receive an email confirmation, Paul Remington will send an e-mail with who (the number of tyers) and what every one is tying.
  • Once you receive a confirmation, Paul will include a due date of two weeks out for these flies.
  • You have TWO WEEKS to complete them and get them to the Paul Remington, regardless of who the Swap Initiator was.
  • Commence tying.
  • Tie a minimum of TWO FLIES per person participating.
  • Once you have completed your flies you will than send them to Paul Remington or
    you can place them in Paul's mail box at church. If you need Paul's home address he will send that to you if you prefer.
  • Once all the flies are received Paul will send them out to all that have participated. 
Note: Fly Casting Lessons are now By Appointment, so contact us via the Contact Us tool below to set them up.
By appointment allows us to serve you best and be able to come to a location more convenient for both of us - somewhere in the middle.
