Fishing Meets Science
At our camp, kids gain experience and expertise in all things fly fishing. They also learn about the ongoing restoration efforts of the Clark Fork Watershed and what it means to be fishing on a restored waterway. Our vision is that they leave our camp not only knowing more about fly fishing but also how to be stewards of their watershed.
Local and regional experts and scientists provide kids with hands-on experience and knowledge of the watershed that they are fishing in.
CFWEP will provide all meals, snacks, transportation, fly fishing equipment/supplies, temporary licenses, first aid kit, and other consumables (sunscreen, bug repellent, etc.).
Cost is $100 and no prior fishing experience is necessary.
