WHAT’S GOING ON, AND WHO WE ARE….

FFFC May General Meeting

When: Thursday, May 1st, 2025 doors open at 7pm

Where: Provost & Pritchard office building

Topic: Bryan Quick Talks Upper Sacramento, Hat Creek, Fall River, Pitt River, McCloud and more!!

Our speaker for May is Bryan Quick from The Fly Shop in Redding. He will
be speaking to us on the fishing opportunities to be had in the Northern
part of the state. Bryan will address the techniques and strategies that
work best on the Upper Sacramento, Hat Creek, Fall River, Pitt River and
the McCloud.

Bryan spent his early years chasing bass, trout and carp in the local Bay Area, and western Sierra lakes and streams with his fly rod. After having retired from the Air Force, he returned to Northern California to the waters he loves to fish and guide.

Bryan first got started in fly fishing when he saw a fly fisher on one of his family camping trips. After seeing this new style of fishing, he asked for a fly rod for his 7th birthday. He has been using a fly rod ever since and continues to pick up new aspects of the sport, two-handed fishing being a big part of his fishing.

Bryan’s favorite aspect of fly fishing is the challenge of figuring out how to catch trout. This involves so many things that appeal to him; observation, developing fly patterns and tying, practicing casting and presentations, planning trips, and much more. "When it all comes together and you have fooled a fish, it is the best feeling."

Tight Lines, See you at the meeting!

Our Mission

We are a FEDERATION OF FLY FISHERS ffiliated club, a national organization whose goal, like ours, is to promote the wonderful sport of fly-fishing as well as protect our natural resources. We promote catch and release, education, conservation, and above all, encourage and help those who desire to learn more about all aspects of fly-fishing.

Fly Fishers for Conservation (FFFC) was organized in 1961 by a group of devoted fly fishers deeply concerned with the preservation of trout and all game fish, their environment, and the quality of fishing. Our club has maintained two goals since that time: To foster and promote the sport of angling with artificial flies. To protect, conserve and increase our angling resources.

Fly Fishers for Conservation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt non-profit organization. This means you can use your contribution as a tax deduction. The club gets revenue from member-ship dues and the annual fundraiser dinner. We try to contribute to conservation issues in the area and to our youth with our Trout in the Classroom program, the No Child Left Inside program and by holding a Youth Fly-Fishing Academy annually. The club is al-ways in need of funds. Please consider donating. You may send a check to Fly Fishers for Conservation at PO Box 1192, Clovis, CA 93613. Your donations will be greatly appreciated and they will help the club fulfill its obligations.
