Hello Anglers,

Just wanted to give you an update, I have two TFF members who will be present this upcoming Saturday for the fishing derby. This Wednesday I will have a fish identification section as a part of the RA meeting. I put together these common fish cards that the boys Can use to identify fish as well as have some basic information about the species. Please feel free to use them for yourselves or any other beginner angler.

Thanks for what you are doing! RAs like Scouting do a lot and using fishing to get kids out of doors is a passion. Sorry I am not available on Saturday but if you do it again I would like to help. A quick trip to the lake house and I could fix them all up. Hey, if you ever want to bring them to Lake Cypress Springs me and some buddies could host them with a first class fishing trip!

Thank you,

This is actually my first time leading an RA group and it has been an amazing experience. I have learned so much from the boys while trying to pass on what wisdom I think I have...haha.

I will definitely keep everyone up to date if there will be another fishing derby coming up....I had pondered with the idea of doing one in mid January at the same location since TPWD stocks trout there in December...but we shall see.

Also I am sending you a PM about cypress

I have several friends that attend your church and have attended several events there. I am just seeing this and am out of pocket this weekend, but could help in some way in the future. Just keep this note handy and feel free to PM me.

Hey there! Thank you for your interest and willingness to help! We will possibly plan another fishing event in the early spring...but I will keep you up to date! I will make sure to post pics next week from this weekends derby.

The Derby on Saturday went really well!

The boys were super excited to get out there and comb the ponds for fish. They couldn't keep a single bait on the end of their line for more than five minutes cause they kept wanting to try all different kinds. In the end, it was only myself and one of the boys dads that ended up catching some bluegill.

The boys and I are greatly thankful and appreciative for all the donations and support provided by:
