SUMMARY:Open Casting Session with Truchas Chapter
DESCRIPTION:Join the Truchas Chapter of Trout Unlimited for an open casting session\, a fun and welcoming way to sharpen your fly casting. This is an informal\, skills-based gathering with casting drills\, distance and accuracy games\, casting challenges\, and plenty of time to ask questions or work on specific techniques. Whether you are brand new or an experienced caster\, the activities are designed to be useful at every level. \nCertified instructors Eric Callow and Tanner Hall will lead the session\, offer critique and suggestions\, and introduce casters to the American Casting Association accuracy games. Good casting takes practice\, and it goes a lot further with passionate instructors and a like-minded community. This session provides both. \nThis is a regularly planned casting series\, so come out\, meet fellow anglers\, and make it a habit. \nWhat to bring: Your own rod and reel if you have them. A few loaner setups will be available if you need to borrow gear. All skill levels welcome. \nQuestions: Tanner Hall\, Fly Fishing Committee Chair\, (404) 971-0777\, tannerhall47@gmail.com; or Eric Callow\, Director of Casting Activities\, (818) 219-2276\, cecallow@att.net.

SUMMARY:Fall Casting Clinic with the Truchas Chapter
DESCRIPTION:Almost every fly angler’s story begins the same way: a desire to simply make a better cast. We catch fish with whatever technique we happen to have\, but there is a particular gratification in laying out a nuanced presentation in a challenging spot\, and chasing that feeling is how a lot of us fell for this sport in the first place. This fall\, we would like to help you take a step down that road. \nOn Saturday\, October 24\, the Truchas Chapter of Trout Unlimited is hosting a Fall Casting Clinic at Magers Field\, and we are opening it up to everyone in Santa Fe\, not just chapter members. If you have never picked up a fly rod\, this clinic was built for you. If you have been at it a while and want to tighten your loop\, there is plenty here for you too. \nThe morning is taught by Fly Fishers International (FFI) Certified Casting Instructors. FFI’s Certified Casting Instructor program has spent more than thirty years training instructors in a shared understanding of how a cast works\, the mechanics and even the physics behind it\, and how to teach it well. There are around 1\,500 CCIs teaching in some forty countries today\, and as a group they are famously eager to share what they know. Our past clinics have been made possible by volunteer Certified Instructors traveling in from as far as Albuquerque and Taos. \nYou will spend the morning working through the fundamentals in small groups\, moving between stations: the basic casting stroke\, the roll cast\, mends and curve casts\, presentation\, and the concepts that tie it all together. Go at your own pace\, ask all the questions you want\, and leave with real casts you can take to the river. Who knows\, it might even be the start of your own journey toward certification. \nThe details: \n\nSaturday\, October 24\, 2026\, 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM\nMagers Field\, Fort Marcy Recreation Complex\, 490 Bishops Lodge Road\, Santa Fe (a grass field\, so wear comfortable shoes)\nAll skill levels welcome\, beginners very much included\nOnly 40 tickets\, so grabbing yours early is the way to hold your spot\nTicket: $25 per participant\n\nReady to cast with us? \nGrab your ticket right here on this page. Just 40 are available\, so reserve your spot before they are gone. \nQuestions? Reach the chapter at TUTruchas@gmail.com. \nWe hope to see you on the grass in October. \nThe Truchas Chapter of Trout Unlimited

SUMMARY:End-of-Season Ales & Tales at Second Street Brewery
DESCRIPTION:The cottonwoods are turning\, the season is winding down\, and just about everybody has a story from this year they have not told yet. That is what October 28 is for. Our quarterly social comes back to Santa Fe\, to Second Street Brewery on Rufina\, from 5 to 8 PM. \nThis is the one where the year gets talked through. What worked and what did not\, which water surprised people\, what everybody is tying this winter\, and where everybody is headed next season. A fair number of chapter plans start at these tables long before they ever reach an agenda. Bring your best story from this season. Accuracy is encouraged but not enforced. \nOne ask\, and it is the whole plan: bring somebody with you. A partner\, a fishing buddy\, the coworker who keeps saying they want to try fly fishing one of these days\, a neighbor who just moved to Santa Fe and does not know the water yet. If everyone who usually turns up brings one person\, this becomes the best one we have had. That is not a big lift\, and it is genuinely how these things grow. \nAnd if you are the one being brought along\, or you are coming on your own without knowing a soul\, you will be fine. People assume a chapter event means walking into a room where everyone already knows each other. Half the table met the other half exactly once. You do not need to fish\, own a rod\, know a nymph from a streamer\, or be a member. Nobody is going to put you on a committee. Turn up\, say hello\, ask whatever you want to ask. \nAles & Tales moves around the region each quarter. Last round was up in Los Alamos\, so this one belongs to our Santa Fe neighbors\, and to anyone willing to make the drive. \nThe details: \n\nWednesday\, October 28\, 2026\, 5:00 to 8:00 PM\nSecond Street Brewery\, 2920 Rufina Street\, Santa Fe\nNo cover and no ticket. Food and drinks are on your own tab.\nNo RSVP. Come at five or come at seven\, stay twenty minutes or stay the whole three hours.\nMembers and friends both. Newcomers and non-anglers genuinely welcome.\n\nPut it on your calendar\, then text one person and tell them you are bringing them. Look for the table with the fishing talk coming off it. That will be us. \nQuestions? Reach the chapter at TUTruchas@gmail.com. \nSee you on Rufina. \nThe Truchas Chapter of Trout Unlimited
