Celebrate Women in Fly Fishing This June
Join Us in Celebrating Women in Fly Fishing
DId you know that women in fly fishing are one the fastest growing demographic in the sport? FFI recognized the value in mentoring women by establishing a women-focused program over 10 years ago. It is now known as FFI Women Connect.
We are once again asking you to join us this June to celebrate. FFI Councils are holding events in June and beyond to give women the opportunity to gather, learn, and inspire each other as they take their journey in fly fishing. We hope you can attend one of the events, but if that's not possible, then celebrate in your own way. Take a woman fly fishing, give her the gift of a fly or some new equipment, or simply say some encouraging words that will help her on the journey. Click here for more details about events.
