Last week we finished up the last of our summer camps with the end of our Fly Fishing Camp for 5th-8th graders!

Students had a fun three days learning how to identify types of trout and the different bugs they eat, practice casting and fly tying, and of course, fishing!

Huge thanks to Cache Anglers and Trout Unlimited for all their expertise and time in helping teach the next generation how to fly fish. Students get all the gear they need to continue this lifelong hobby thanks to these great organizations and their generous sponsors!
