OPENING DAY!!

April 9, 2011


THE WEB SITE IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING UPDATED

After changing hosting companies and the resulting move to Linux-based servers, some of the old features no longer work as before:

  • The forum software has been disabled and will be replaced in some form, perhaps a blog.

  • A new Members Only sign-on method has been implemented, and new passwords will be issued with your 2011 member IDs.

  • Newsletters and Photos must be brought up to date.

  • With the forum software gone, we have installed direct links to PayPal for online membership purchases (see here).

THIS IS A TIME-CONSUMING PROCESS, AND WE APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE


Monthly Meetings now at 7:30


The Needham Sportsman's Club is a fly-fishing only trout pond located ½-mile from the center of Needham, Massachusetts.

"Trout Pond" is stocked twice yearly with good-sized rainbow, brook and brown trout. As all fishing is catch-and-release, there is a solid population of holdover trout for excellent early season fishing right after ice-out.

The club features:

  • Fly fishing only
  • Catch-and-release
  • Stocked rainbow and brown trout from 10" to 20"
  • Monthly meetings w/presentations, slide shows
  • Spring and Fall "Opening Days"
  • Holiday dinners with raffles and drawings
  • Junior and Adult memberships
  • "Members-only" web pages
  • Bulletin board with public and members sections
  • Online registration and payment

The club meets every third Thursday, September through June, at the clubhouse on the property. Members bring everything from fly-tying gear to favorite rods, trip photographs and tall tales.

The official meetings now begin at 7:30pm. People start wandering in as early as 6:30 to tie flies and swap lies. Unless otherwise indicated food is not provided.

If you are interested, plan on joining us to learn more about the club and meet some of our members.


We hope to see you at the pond!
