The Fall Festival

IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD ?
Visit With The Neighbors
invading rock star appearance
DO FLY FISHERS ROCK ??

-------
.. It's mostly a neighborhood gig. But quite a few outlanders from far and away are increasingly present each passing year.
.. The MADISON RIVER FOUNDATION FLY FISHING FESTIVAL is just around the corner, LINK.
.. International celebrities, local guides, feather merchants, boat builders, equipment peddlers, our neighbors, and just plain fisher folks will be in attendance.
.. It's a celebration of Ennis on the Madison and the good works that the Madison River Foundation is involved with. It takes place in just one week - or so.
.. Making a sneak appearance this year will be Montana native son Nate Schweber: fly fisher, author, and singer. Hot off of his appearance at the IFTD show in Reno he will make a brief appearance for his book signing in Ennis, {Fly Fishing Yellowstone National Park: an insider's guide to the 50 best places.} Rumor has it that it will be on Saturday, September 1, 2012 - we'll see.
.. The two day festival is a good chance to hob-nob with all the stars of our neighborhood fly fishing scene. It's a chance to attend mini seminars on topics as diverse as rod design and photography. It's also a chance to gorge yourself on some of the finest convention food that ever splattered a plate in our neighborhood.
.. If you're in the neighborhood drop in and enjoy the doings.
