Mike,
Thank you so much! I had a great time, despite the cold (I will note that it is now sunny...grrrr)

Mike,

Just a note of thanks for such a fun time - I really appreciate your organization's willingness to share their expertise and passion for fishing with us "newbies". A free seminar (lunch included) was very generous. I'm looking forward to becoming skilled at fly fishing - I had no idea I had a talent for tying knots!! Your class definitely gave me the jump start I was looking for.

Please keep me on your mailing list for future events.
Best regards,
Trish W

Mike,
Thanks for these photos. I want you to know how much I appreciate AAATU making a class for women possible. I learned alot from you and with the assistance of the many fishing women volunteers we had great personal attention.

The weather was not so cooperative but we are all stalwart women and made the best of it. I am sooooo happy I learned how to tie on my own flies, no fish caught, only the back of my fleece and disappointed that I lost three flies, even with experts checking my tie ons.I guess those are my mistakes of the season so I can move on and enjoy the fishing next time.

Let me know of any events with AAATU fishing so I can join in. I loved meeting the other women members and their interest to have me fish with them anytime, always fish up with those who have more experience.
I love my hat and the lunch was great.

Hi Mike,
If I didn't thank you for Saturday's flyfishing event, I'll thank you again now. It was fun and I appreciated your generous efforts.
Also, the gals who help were great. Could you thank them for me?
