RMA is developing a new youth program this summer to introduce inspired young anglers to our local waters in a safe and educational manner. The RMA summer camp will offer youth between the ages of 7 and 15 the opportunity to learn the basics of fly fishing in a fun group environment. The camp will be divided into groups of four youths based on age and experience and cover all of the basics of fly fishing. Young anglers that have prior experience fishing will be grouped together and provided a more advanced curriculum.

Activities Include: familiarizing ones self with fly fishing equipment, instructional casting, guided fishing, bug collecting, fish habitat, getting in touch with our rivers (the importance of keeping the river clean and pristine), day hikes, knot tying, tying flies, introductory entomology, swimming.

The typical day will include a variety of activities and instructional lessons mixed with time on the water. Small groups are the key to this learning experience. The goal of RMA Fishing Camp is to provide each camper with a deeper understanding of the joy of fly fishing and all of the information necessary to fish independently.

What To Bring: Rods, reels, waders and basic equipment and flies will be provided in the class. We recommend that campers come equipped with any and all fishing equipment they have, as well as lunch, polarized sunglasses, raingear, sunscreen, water, snacks, bathing suit and a great additude!
