Finding serenity 
in fly fishing, 
one day at a time

We run free fly fishing retreats for people in recovery. No experience needed, no gear to buy, nothing to pay — just a day on the water with people who understand, and a few hours where nothing else is asked of you.

Two people stand in a shallow river, one holding a fishing rod and the other holding a fishing net, near a rocky and mossy riverbank surrounded by trees and greenery.

Next season is on the way

Every retreat is free. 2027 dates are coming together now.

to get involved

WAYS IN

Some people come to fish. Some help run the day. Some pay for it so it stays free. All three keep this going — and the first is where most people start.

OUR STORY

Why we do this

Becca Sue Klein found her way to sobriety and found fly fishing at the same time, and understood that the two were connected. She started taking other people fishing. That was the whole beginning of it.

Becca passed away in January 2025. The work continues in her name, run entirely by volunteers.

Since 2022

Every one of them free.

The fishing was the part I was most looking forward to, but in the end it was the conversations and fellowship that filled my cup."

Two retreats

A woman sitting on a chair with her hands clasped, smiling, while another person kneels beside her on the grass, working on her hand. There is gear and outdoor equipment around them, suggesting an outdoor activity or event.

You show up.
We handle the rest.

Rods, reels, waders, flies, lunch, instruction — all provided. Most people who come have never held a fly rod. That's the normal starting point, not the exception.
