The MFFA is developing a new fishing mentorship program whereby beginners are matched up with experienced fishermen.  If you would like to be a mentor, or are looking for the opportunity to head out with an experienced fisherman, log into the website and submit your name in the "Mentorship Program" category in the MFFA Fly Fishing Forum, or click here.  We'll see what we can do to hook you up. 

The Riverview Community Centre is closed for the time being.  All May MFFA meetings are cancelled.

We have also decided to cancel our annual MFFA fund raising banquet on April 25th at the Viscount Gort.  We are rescheduling for October 17.  If you already have tickets we will refund them or you can keep them for the Fall date.

Don't forget that Orvis, Temple Fork, Simms, and Peak Vises have extended a limited number of discount offers to the club again this year.  As in past years we will be selling raffle tickets at the weekly club meetings when they resume for a chance to take advantage of these discounts.

The renovations for the club cabin at Wellman Lake are now complete!  Here are the before and after shots.

Bruce Cameron

If you're like me, by this time of year you're looking forward to wading a flowing river again in the hopes of convincing a trout to inhale one of your newest Winter creations!  Then mark Saturday June 20th on your calendar when once again the MFFA will be working on our latest Whiteshell River Enhancement Project.  We hope to complete work on the Knigfisher Angler Access Trail along with assisting AAE Tech Services with their installation of the MFFA's New In-River Underwater Camera System (the "WOW" or "Window on the Whiteshell").  As always there will be fly fishing opportunities and a hatchery tour associated with this effort.  All interested volunteer members and guests are asked to register with Conservation Chair Bruce Cameron at This email address is being protected from spambots.
