There are a few Links to things I’d like to plug…
First is my FFI Charter Club- The Mangrove Coast Fly Fishers
I have been a member of this club since its inception in 1992. I am the past President. Our club, located in Sarasota Florida meets on the fourth Wednesday of every month (except December). We have a speaker, fly tying demonstrations, and casting instruction by FFI Certified Casting Instructors at every meeting. Non-members interested in fly fishing are encouraged to attend a complementary meeting. Any FFI member is welcome as we are a charter club of the FFI.
Many of my fly tying instructional videos are available on the site.
Second, is my Fly Tying Club- The Sarasota Fly Tyers
[The Liars Club-bring photos, we don’t believe anyone. Don’t forget to bring (good craft) beer if you want us to like you.]This group has been around at least 20 years longer than Mangrove Coast. It’s simply a group of tyers that get together in a garage every Tuesday night, tie flies, talk about fly fishing, and have a beer.
Third is Capt. Pete Greenan
Pete has been a great friend, traveling companion, and a first rate Captain. Pete formed Mangrove Coast Fly Fishers, and has been the President of the club twice. He helped form and is a past President of the FFI Florida Council. He is a FFI Master Casting Instructor and is a former Chairman of the FFI Casting Board of Governors. He is a mentor to all things conservation and fly fishing.
Capt Pete has been operating his fly fishing charter service in the Boca Grande backwaters for over forty years. If you’re planning a trip to the area to fly fish, I can’t recommend any better choice of Captains.
