It's
finally summer in Chicago! It was a long time coming but it's here.
River levels are getting back to normal, fish are looking up, and
there's a ton of good fishing to be had in the area now. We'll be at
Galway Bay on Monday the 8th tying a few flies, talking fishing and of
course getting in a few drinks!
Come on out and hang with a bunch of fishy local folks. Whether you tie or not all are welcome to join us.
See you there!

It's been a wild spring in Chicago and the rivers may be blown for a while but we're keeping hope that we'll all be back on the water soon. We'll be hanging out Monday May 13 as always at Galway Bay to get some flies tied, have a few drinks, and have a good time with other fly fishers. Everyone is welcome (21+) so bring your friends and come hang out!
Well its official! The 2019 Bronzeback Cup Fly Tournament will be held on July 20th in the Northern Illinois and Chicagoland area. Tournament will be open to teams of two or three with boats/vessels.

April 8
Spring is finally here! Despite the up and down temps the fishing is starting to heat up. It's time to get out on the water! Pre- spawn smallies have been a hot ticket locally the last few weeks and the Driftless is on fire lately. Get excited for the start of the season and come have a few drinks with fun people, tie up a couple flies, and have a good time. We'll be at Galway Bay- our favorite Lakeview dive- around 6:30 till whenever. As always everyone (21+) is welcome- whether you're our local Pro Staff or just fly curious we can't wait to hang out.
Cheers!
==Don't Forget==
Both Illinois and Wisconsin fishing licenses expire on March 31. Don't get caught out on the water. Stay legal and support fisheries by getting a new license today!

February 11
Well winter is set in and it's set in hard. There won't be much fly fishing to be done locally for a while but at least we've still got tying and beer. Come out of the cold and hang out with us at Galway Bay on Monday February 11. We'll be there no matter what the weather! Join us for some fishy conversation some good beers (and/ or cheap whiskey) and maybe get a few flies tied up for the spring that will be here sooner than you think!
We'll see you there!!
