WHO WE ARE

The Chico Area Flyfishers is a 501(c)7 non-profit organization which is dedicated to promoting awareness and participation in the art of fly fishing and promoting the conservation, preservation, and enhancement of our fishery resources. Monthly activities include club meetings, fishouts, fly casting and fly tying seminars. The club promotes the preservation and restoration of streams, rivers and lakes, particularly those within California. We support youth programs that provide both education and enjoyment to young people interested in fishing. All club activities endeavor to promote learning  the art of fly fishing and developing an appreciation for healthy fisheries.
