Why Are We Called the Wulffies?

Delta Fly Fishers actively seeks to support all anglers on the water! We have a very supportive membership and a growing group of women anglers that enjoy being on the water and helping others develop their skills and outdoor opportunities.

2022 Women's Activities!

January 29, 2022; 9:30 to 1 pm at Day Use Parking Lot 1 at the Comanche Dam Fish Hatchery; Soup and Streamers 

Women's outreach hosted its first outing of 2022! Thanks to our 8 participants for coming out and exploring the basics of streamer fishing. The day was super enjoyable- great weather, yummy food and amazing company. Looking forward to many more fun days like this with the Wulffies!

February 25th: A special thank you to all our female anglers who came out to the Fly Fishing Expo in Pleasanton! We had 10 women from our Wulffies attended. Our anglers explored the booths and took advantage of the casting lessons and casting challenge. We also had 4 anglers complete the scavenger hunt and Mary from Amador Fly Casters won the random drawing! It was great seeing everyone there. Thanks so much for coming!

March 13th: Tacos and Leader Ties! We had a great time on a small local river where the exciting highlight was Michelle catching an amazing 14 inch fish on this waterway that usually produces much smaller fish. We wrapped up this beautiful day with a taco lunch. What a wonderful time with great anglers!

April 23: Float Safety and Sandwiches: We spent the morning going through getting in and out of our float tubes and pontoons and then spent a relaxing day on the water until we shared a yummy lunch! Thanks to all who came out!

May 13-15: CANCELLED! So sorry- the organizers of this activity will be out of town and we have to cancel. Please feel free to join in the One Fly Contest though- It is always a fun time! Arnold Adventure! Enjoy a weekend at Dena's cabin. We will head up to Arnold Friday evening and fish for some fun blue gill. Saturday morning we will participate in the One Fly Contest on White Pines Lake. Sunday morning we will explore creeks and rivers in Big Trees State Park. The only cost will be entry into the One Fly Contest, transportation and your food. All participants must have a current liability waiver signed. Lodging available to DFF members only. Small streams can be fished with 3 or 4 wt rods. White Pines and larger rivers would do well with a 5wt. A flotation vessel such as a float tube and PFD are needed for the one fly contest.

June 10-12: West Walker Outing in Bridgeport: We have four slots available for a women's outing to Bridgeport. We are staying in a double queen room at the Walker Lodge with a river's view room. We will explore the Walker River in Nevada and some other local waterways. Food is no-host. Cost for 2 nights lodging is $125 per person with 4 occupants in the room. Rods recommended are 3 to 5 wt with dry-dropper set ups.

July 7-8: The women's Yosemite outing was a blast! We spent the first day of the outing in the valley taking in the sites as we rode bikes around fishing. We found some fish above Happy Isles! We had a late lunch/early dinner at the Ahwahnee Hotel. We spent a comfortable and relaxing evening in Coulterville and found the most delicious restaurant in Greeley Hills. Dena said it was the top 3 breakfasts of her life! We then drove to Tuolumne Meadows and everyone caught double digits fish and everyone caught the Yosemite trifecta of Brook, Brown and Rainbow trout! One angler caught over 40 fish! What fun!

July 21, Women's Smallmouth Bass Outing- What a blast! WE had so much fun fishing with Captains Al Smatsky and Bryce Tedford. The fish, the company and the authentic Mexican food made for a spectacular day!

October 1st: Yosemite small stream outing! A repeat of the earlier outing based upon your requests! We will head up to Yosemite Saturday and fish until we get tired and/or hungry. We have a 6 capacity rustic cabin reserved. The cost will be splitting the cost of the cabin ($210) for those that spend the night. Sunday we will either return to Yosemite or fish nearby waters. Three weights and a desire to catch lots of beautiful trout required! Call Amy at 209-329-4801 to register. Two open spots left!

October 29nd: Sorry- We have to Cancel Micke Grove! Picnic in the Park: Let's meet at the Micke Grove Park Pond and we can fish for blue gill and small bass then enjoy a picnic together in the park!
