The Austin Fly Fishers is an Austin, Texas fly fishing club open to anyone interested in fly fishing. We are a non-profit organization concerned with conserving local waters and the wildlife that inhabit them, as well as promoting the sport and art of fly fishing. We actively support and contribute to various conservation efforts, charities, and youth programs, both nationwide, and in the Austin area.

Monthly Meeting
September 19 | 7:00 pm
Guest Speaker: Judson Cole
Topic: Fly Fishing the Guadalupe River and Understanding River Entomology (matching the hatch)
Judson Cole is head guide and owner of the new Rio Anglers. In this presentation he will break down the basics of “aquatic insects” and their related counterparts, and how they are a vital component of a fish’s diet. He will discuss basic identification, stages of the hatching cycle, and the fly patterns used to match these. He’ll then guide you through the intricacies of matching the hatch on the Guadalupe, helping you identify key aquatic insects and tie effective flies to target Guadalupe River fish.
The Austin Fly Fishers meet the third Thursday of each month at the Northwest Rec Center (2913 Northland Dr).
Doors at 6pm meeting begins at 7pm.
Visitors and guests welcome.
