Topic: The Marsh Chicks latest production
Join us Monday, May 11th for a special presentation as RSFF Members, Emily & Laken - aka, the Marsh Chicks - share their latest video collaboration.
Talented anglers and videographers, the pair recently joined Capt. David Rogers for a day on the marsh. The showing will be a great opportunity to experience marsh fishing first hand (and great promotion for David’s new venture, Flats Drifter) and will also be an excellent opportunity to pick Emily & Laken’s brains on all things fishing photography and videography!
Be sure to check out all of The Marsh Chicks’ content on Youtube:

Rally Cap Brewing

Featured Pattern: TBD
While we haven’t settled on a featured pattern as of yet, we’re aiming for something that can be used by anglers fishing the coast as action there is heating up.
Whether you’re a seasoned tier or new to the vise, come hang out, sip some craft brews, and tie a fly with the community.
F&F is an independent collective of tiers just looking to tie and enjoy a social gathering with some fine brews. While not affiliated with Red Stick, it was hatched by a few club members as an alternative to a traditional meeting environment. Everyone is welcome!

Featured Fly Tyer: Carlos Adams
Featured Fly: The Sand Flea Spoon Fly
Join us this month as as our very own Carlos Adams, teaches us how to tie the Sand Flea Spoon Fly.
Hardshell Sand Fleas (Mole Crabs) are a premier, naturally occurring bait for surf fishing, particularly for pompano, as they inhabit the water’s edge in colonies and are often collected using a rake. These small crustaceans are found in the swash zone, and females often carry bright orange eggs, which are highly attractive to fish.
A simple mimic for these bite size morsels, the Sand Flea Spoon Fly incorporates a variety of tying materials including a fake fingernail to create a unique fish catching design.
Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to stock up your surf box before that summer beach trip!!
As usual, beginners and guests are welcome! Tools, vises and materials are available for use during this session for those looking to learn.
