From the Southern Sierra Fly Fishers:
One of our many goals as a fly fishing club is to give back to the community. We created the California Fly Fishing Open with the hope of building stronger ties with fly fishing folks while also giving back to such an amazing community.Β
This year, we donated a set amount to @kernriverconservancy and Kern Valley Search and Rescue. Not even the fires and the pandemic can prevent us from having one of our biggest event of the year, the 2020 Virtual California Fly Fishing Open. Although, we have slightly changed a few things, we are excited to have it for many reasons:
π Fish on any public waters in California
π Chose either Saltwater or Freshwater
π Partner team and you can fish separate waters or fish together. ππΌ
π Itβs free but we only ask each participant to be a member of our club
