Big Mac Fly Fishers Member FEDERATION OF FLY FISHERS About the Club
The Big Mac Fly fisher Club was started to instruct and promote the art and pleasure of fly fishing to interested people, and is dedicated to the sport. This dedication comes from the strong support of its knowledgeable membership. Our club is dedicated to providing fly fishing knowledge to our young people. We invite you to visit us either by browsing through our website or by coming to one of our regular monthly meetings. The sport provides lots of activities for the whole family, and fly fishing is another great way to enjoy the great outdoors here in Nebraska and elsewhere. Fly fishing is not only for trout, but for all species, as they can all be taken with fly fishing tackle, where ever there are fish. If you think at all that you might like try it we have many excellent fly fishermen in the club who are more than willing to help you get started. DIRECTIONS TO THE BIG MAC SPORTS CLUB clubhouse. The Big Mac Fly fishers regular monthly meeting is held the third Tuesday of every month at 7:00 P.M. at the Big Mac Sports Club clubhouse located across the hiway to the east of Arby's. Follow the road to the left down to the stop sign under the overpass...take a right...follow the road east to the club house/trap range located on the right hand side of the road.
