February General Meeting – Thursday February 19, 2026
Speaker: Ben Sheard, “Bugs, Tactics and Q & A on Fishing the Delaware System”. Thursday February 19, 2026 West Endicott Fire Station, 113 North Page Ave., Endicott, NY; 7:00 PM: Equipment table will be available for sale/donation/exchange starting at 6:30.
Ben Sheard, shop manager at West Branch and trained biologist has 24 years’ experience on Delaware River. There are 80 miles of trout populated fishable water in this system. Ben will talk about the dominant bugs, when they appear and the best areas to find them. He will give us tips on rigging, leaders, and what to “not do” based on his years of observation. He will also have an informative Q&A session so you would be smart to write down your questions before the meeting.
So if you’re interested in learning more about fishing the Delaware River System and getting specific questions answered by someone that really know this river, you won’t want to miss this talk.

BC FlyFishers Invites You to an Introductory Hands-On Course on Fly Fishing for Those Who Always Wanted to Try Fly Fishing but Didn’t Know Where to Start!
This course is for budding fly fishers age 12 and over. No experience necessary, in fact this course is targeted toward those who want to try fly fishing for the first time but is beneficial for beginners as well.
This is a great gift opportunity to get your spouse, kids, grandkids and friends exposed to a sport you love.
We supply everything for you to use during this one day course including rods, lines, flies and accessories. We will cover the basics and give you hands on experience including;
- What’s different and special about fly fishing
- Equipment definitions and set up
- Knot tying
- Basics of the different flies and how they are fished
- Fly tying – what is it and how it is an art form on its’ own
- Casting instruction from FFI (Fly Fishers International) certified instructors
- Plenty of time to practice casting and to revisit any of the other subjects covered
Where – West Endicott Fire Station 113 N. Page Ave, Endicott, N.Y. – We have a gym in the building where you will learn to cast with expert guidance. This year we are hoping to do the casting part outdoors. More details to come.
When – Saturday, April 25, 2026 9am – 3-ish pm. We will add more sessions as there is interest and are accepting only 4 students per session unless we can get outside for casting.
Cost – $50 per student. Drinks and snacks included
You will leave with a sense of what fly fishing is all about plus a booklet with background on what we talk about… links to help cut through the confusion on equipment choices to help you choose your first rod, reel and line, and videos you can access as you proceed on your fly-fishing adventure.
Once the weather allows, our club has fishing days on ponds and on the different creeks and rivers that bless our area. We set up fishing buddies on these outings so there will be someone to help you on the water as well. There is no charge for this as a member of our club.
You are welcome to join our mailing list, join our club and participate in our meetings, fishing trips and other events as well. This is optional, you do not have to join our club to participate in this course.
