The Oak Brook Chapter of Trout Unlimited is hosting a “Spring Fling” open house on Saturday, May 9 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the White Eagle Homeowners Clubhouse at 4265 White Eagle Drive in Naperville.

The TU Oak Brook Chapter “Spring Fling” event is free to Trout Unlimited members, member families, friends and general public.

The event features information about Trout Unlimited conservation volunteer activities planned for the 2015 spring, summer and fall seasons as well as youth education programs including “Trout in the Classroom,” youth fly fishing Saturday classes this summer and fall, and a summer youth fly fishing camp in Michigan on the famous Au Sable River.

To support the organization’s fund raising, the Spring Fling event will feature a used gear sale and a “One of a Kind” silent auction featuring guided fishing trips to Wisconsin, Michigan, Montana, Idaho and Vermont as well as new fishing equipment and collectible artwork.

The event will conclude with a 2 p.m. presentation by Kyle Zempel, owner and lead guide of Black Earth Angling Co.—a Wisconsin guide service which offers trips in pursuit of trout, smallmouth bass and pike. The Oak Brook TU Spring Fling event has something for everyone and is timed to kick off the spring and summer fishing season after another long cold Chicago winter.

A free lunch featuring grilled bratwursts and hot dogs will be provided for attendees.
