 Christmas Special with Lindsay Simpson

On Thursday 12th December Lindsay Simpson will speak on “Preparing to Fish a Competition” and then tie a few of the flies that he might decide to use. We shall meet for the usual meal in the Crosskeys at 6:30 pm, as it is the Christmas Special it would be nice if a few more members, guests most welcome, are able to join Lindsay before the start of the evening. Please let me know by 9th December if you would like to book. (geoffdarby748@yahoo.co.uk)

Club Information

We are a long established club which in a friendly and informal group have been meeting to tie flies and talk about our fishing exploits. After 30 years we have decided to change our club name from the Chiltern Branch of the Fly Dressers’ Guild to the Chiltern Fly Tying and Fly Fishing Club which we think reflects a more modern outlook and terminology.

We have a number of excellent fly tyers who demonstrate at shows and events; they also train newcomers in all the techniques necessary to tie successful flies. Members are encouraged to improve their techniques and assistance is always available to help achieve a better understanding of fly tying.

Throughout the season we organise informal fishing days, we have experienced members who are willing to instruct newcomers in the various skills needed to catch fish.

Our club nights are held at the Great Missenden Memorial Hall, they run from September until April on Thursday evenings from 19:30 – 22:00. Three meetings are held every month:

  • The second Thursday of the month is beginner one-to-one instruction and group improver night.
  • The third Thursday of the month is our very popular ‘Invited Speaker’ evening when top personalities in the fly tying and fishing world demonstrate their skills.
  • The fourth Thursday of the month is a led workshop when one of the members demonstrates step by step how to tie particular flies, often those tied during the speaker evening.
