Overview

Mission

To advance, promote, and teach the art and science of fly fishing, as well as to promote the conservation of public recreational resources and the protection and preservation of the populations of wild fresh water, salt water, and migratory game fish in our streams and lakes.

What it reported doing in 2025

Monthly public meetings where speakers present programs on fish conservation and environmental issues, fish migration and procreation issues, catch and release fishing techniques, entomology, watershed protection, fly casting and fly tying instruction, and river and stream clean up projects.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 67% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
