WELCOME TO BACKCOUNTRY FLY FISHERS

The Backcountry Fly Fishers of Naples, Florida was formed in 1993 to:

• Provide members a place to share fly fishing experiences in the interest of fun and fellowship

• Assist and educate members to improve their fly fishing skills and knowledge of the sport

• Promote conservation of natural resources

• Promote the sport of fly fishing in the community

Today the club has over 160 members. We have a monthly meeting featuring an expert speaker and fly tying demonstrations. Monthly outings provide an opportunity for members to fish in an interesting variety of area locations. Casting and fly tying classes are held monthly for beginners and advanced skill levels. Members receive a monthly the newsletter, the e-Breeze.

The Backcountry Fly Fishers is affiliated with the International Federation of Fly Fishers, an international organization of over 300 clubs, whose purpose is to provide a strong voice in the state and national conservation movement. The Federation provides fly fishing education programs and teaching aids.
