ABOUT

OUR MISSION

Fly Fishing Canada is a not-for-profit organization aimed at promoting fly fishing and, in particular, using national and international fly fishing championships to promote issues concerning fly fishing and conservation.

What we do

Although some anglers still balk at the concept of competitive fly fishing, these strictly catch-and-release events provide a focal point that brings fly fishers together from throughout Canada and the world, not only to exchange technical information about their sport, but also to address problems concerning conservation, water quality, habitat loss, and other environmental problems.

Through these exchanges, many of the problems that plague freshwater fisheries in several countries may someday be beaten, or at least controlled in a meaningful manner.

President’s Message

After serving eight years as a director on Fly Fishing Canada’s board of directors, I am extremely honored and humbled to have been elected by my peers to serve as the president of this great organization. 

Firstly, I would like to thank and acknowledge the following directors and past presidents who have served and volunteered countless hours of their time to help make Fly Fishing Canada and its events such great successes: Jack Simpson; Randy Taylor; John Beaven; Malcolm Stark; Paul Marriner; Gord Bacon; John Nishi; Jim Iredale; and Donald Thom.

Secondly, I would also like to welcome the following individuals who were elected to Fly Fishing Canada’s Board of Directors:  Ivo Balinov; Kevin Cucheron; Colin Huff; Kathy Ruddick; Martha Leeming; Stanton Jack; Clint Goyette; Jim Iredale; Brian Danilkiewicz; Terrence Courtoreille; Ian Troup and Sorin Comsa. I know that the new board and I will give our very best effort while we serve Fly Fishing Canada’s membership and promote fly fishing, competitive fly fishing, and conservation projects across Canada. I am very grateful to have the support of such a hard-working group of individuals by my side, to help steer and keep this well-oiled machine operating as smoothly as possible.
