Update as of April 24:
We had a big response to this event, and our in-person meeting space is nearly full.  If you can't register for the in-person event, please register for the Zoom.  We will do our best to make the event worthwhile for the Zoom audience.

Join Matt Sment to examine the fundamentals of fixed line fly fishing. We will discuss the history, equipment, and core concepts that make Tenkara a fun, unique, and effective way to fly fish!
Matt’s career in adventure leadership and training stretches more than two decades. Published in several media formats, Matt has been a featured presenter at the Appalachian Tenkara Jam, the Tenkara USA Summit, the Midwest Tenkara Fest, and speaks regularly at angling clubs and conservation groups. As co-founder of the Badger Tenkara company (2014-2019), he designed rods, delivered instruction, and promoted tenkara fly fishing all over the United States. Matt keeps busy with guiding, instructing, and serving as Managing Editor (Education) at TenkaraAngler.com. He is proud to call the Wisconsin Driftless region his home water.

The Chapter meeting will start at 7 pm, with 10 minutes of "virtual lobby time" to give online participants time to log on. In-person participants are invited to join us for social time and food/drink (on your own dime) from 5 pm onward.
