Over the last few years there have been regional gatherings associated with the Fiberglass Flyrodders forum but this is shaping up to be the largest one yet.
The Colorado Clave will be based out of Howard, Colorado and held on the Arkansas River on the weekend of September 10th through 12th. There are many lodging options and the spirited thread on the forum is worth checking out for more information.
ArkAnglers in Salida will be the supporting fly shop and a great location to pick up flies, licenses, or anything else you might need for the weekend.
I have been working with a growing list of rod companies and builders to have demos sent for attendees of the Colorado Clave to test cast over the course of the weekend. Demos from the following companies will be available:
Cabela's
FH Paddock
Hardy
Great Bay Fly Rods
Kabuto Rods
Scott Fly Rod Company
South Fork Rod Company
Thomas & Thomas
T.L. Johnson Rod Company
Saturday night should be quite a party and we are going to have a dinner catered by Bandera's Bunkhouse of beef brisket and sides for $13 per person. We are also putting together a raffle with prizes being provided from the following companies.
Castaway Fly Fishing Shop
Cliff Outdoors
D.F. Frame & Logo
Goertzen Adventure Equipment
Hardy
Lemke Concepts
MonoMASTER
Recycled Waders
Scott Fly Rod Company

So...do you want to cast A LOT of quality glass? Do you want to hang out and fish with some true glass geeks? Then send an email to Howard Levett to let him know that you're planning to attend. It should be a really excellent time.

Good luck Cameron. Wish we could make it, but will be thinking of you and all the beer you're going to drink without me.
