CTU Youth Conservation and Flyfishing Camp

The camp is designed to educate students on the importance of coldwater conservation and provide hands-on fly-fishing instruction. Approximately 20 students are selected each year, based on their qualifications and a written essay on why they would like to attend the camp.

Boy Scouts - Fly Fishing Merit Badge

The new Fly Fishing Merit Badge was established in May of 2002. It gives Boy Scouts the opportunity to learn about fly fishing, fly tying, and fishing conservation. It also offers Trout Unlimited members the unique opportunity to share their fly fishing knowledge with our nation's youth. Our local chapters will be a primary source of angling expertise for tens of thousands of young Scouts who want to learn how to fly fish for trout and other species. Acting as teachers, mentors, and friends, TU members can help influence the ethics and practices of young fly fisherman around the country, creating future conservationists and protectors of our fishing resources.
