Nate from Smallmouth Alliance and Friends of Sugar

[nater]

Nate Mullendore here. I'm a board member for the Indiana Smallmouth Alliance and part-time watershed coordinator/office jockey for Friends of Sugar Creek out of Crawfordsville.

Took my first Indiana fly fishing trip Saturday courtesty of NICHES Land Trust and two guys from TFF who let me dry cast into a field of corn stubble for an hour. I didn't get your names though (doh!).

I'll be at grad school (Watershed Management/Forestry and Natural Resources) in West Lafayette in the fall and will likely be testing the waters with this 9 ft. funny rod from time to time.

If TFF wants to do a project with INSA or FSC I'm your guy! If anyone wants to spend a few hours trying to teach a diehard spincaster how to fly fish, I am also your guy!

Hi Nate, Glad to here from you I'm Barry one of the guys you were talking to at the NICHES outing ( I,m the round one ) I'd be more than happy to spend more time getting you acquainted with that long funny rod and the local waters I have your email address and will send you my info. There are a few other members of TFF that I,m sure would be happy to do the same.

Hi Nate,

I'm Rick, I was the other one from TFF (I'm not the round one). I am this years President. I think anyone in the club would be willing to convert a die hard spincaster to the dark side of using the long rod.

Glad to see you on the boards.

Welcome Nate! Glad to hear from you. I fish Sugar Creek quite a bit around the Crawfordsville area. Let me know if you would like to go fishing anytime. Just give a shout out on this message board.
