Our goal is to share our passion for fly fishing and conservation by instilling confidence and building relationships with kids involved in our project. The scenic streams of the Ozarks are unforgettable and we feel every child deserves the opportunity to experience and appreciate the therapeutic benefits of our natural resources.
