Saturday Seminar-March 7

This weekend's seminar...

Getting To The Roots Of Roosters

Adam Rich has spent as much time chasing Roosterfish as anyone we know. 

Come,check out, and learn to tie his effective and absolutely beautifully tied flies for these fish. All of these patterns work very well for other species as well, like Jacks, Trevally, Tuna, even Pike and Trout.

All seminars start at 10:00 am and will end between 11:00 and noon. There is no charge and no pre-registration required. Simply drop by the shop and enjoy the seminar.

Christmas Island

After a couple of years off, Country Pleasures is doing another trip to Christmas Island.
We took a little break when there was no jet service to the island but all is back and running.

This is a very reasonably priced trip compared to a lot of others around the world and is a very "target rich environment" for Bonefish and Trevally.

The trip will be at Christmas from November 8-15, 2011. This will offer us the monthly cycle of the largest Bonefish coming up on certain flats following the full moon.

CP first started going to Christmas Island in 1986 and no shop in Canada knows this destination better than we do!

Perfect for the seasoned flats angler or the first time flats angler!
Give us a call or send us an e-mail for more information.
