February 2020 Club Night
Come and join us at our Monday 24th February Club night and hear club member Tane Moletta give us a talk on “How my freshwater fly fishing improved my sea fishing”.
Kapiti Fly Fishing Club have a number of members who actively participate in the fast growing sport of Salt Water Fly Fishing. It will be a fun night!
Few club members took two Takacats to the Ruamahanga on 9 Februrary 2020 for a fun day exploring the river. One got a monster (haha) Kahawai and another lost a nice brownie.
We don't just fish backcountry rivers and some of us just love exploring.
Come join us!
Fun Night and Casting Clinic
KFFC members met on the evening of 27 January 2020 at the Otaihanga Domain for both casting tuition and a New Year get together. Lots of lies were told and new friendships formed.
With expert tuition from both Gordon Baker and Tony Jacques our members got huge value for minimal cost . Fly fishing is all about being "Out there doing it". Fresh air, exercise, fun, friendship and it's so good for the Soul. Some say it is the New Yoga.
Come join us in 2020 .

We didn't see a rise all day, but a solid 4lb brown happily inhaled blowfly imitation today, while exploring new waters in the Wairarapa.
Club Trip, Retaruke, November 2019
Great weekend away with great mates fishing the Taranaki region literally the back off beyond. The Blue duck station and Retaruke river was stunning.
Winter Fly Tying Sessions
I had heard that I could " add a bit of red in the thorax" so I did but I also added a metallic abdomen. Crikey, when will I stop adding stuff? Anyway The Kapiti Fly Fishing club does lots of exciting stuff, including running Winter Fly tying sessions. If you want to learn to tie neater ones than mine then join up and book in. Size 18# and 16# little black dries.
