Welcome!
The CSRA Fly Fishers was chartered in 1990. Since that time we have strived to include a diversity of anglers of all ages, including those interested in warm water, salt water and cold water fishing. Our members include experts in fishing local waters and those who have fished in many parts of the world. The goal of our organization is to provide a local community of anglers for the advancement of the art, education and conservation of fly fishing. We are an affiliated member of the Federation f Fly Fishers (FFF), the only organized advocate for fly fishers on a national and regional level.

The 2013 Southeastern Fly Fishing Festival will be held at The Ramsey Center at Western Carolina University on May 17 - 18, 2013.
The Festival Committee has been hard at work on this year's Festival, and we are ready to launch online registration. We expect to have at least forty exhibitors and forty tiers. We are pleased to have Ian and Charity Rutter of R&R Fly Fishing, Jim Casada of Jim Casada Outdoors and Al Buhr, two-handed rod guru, as our headliners. Our MCIs and CCIs have, once again, put together a best in class casting program. Paul Bourcq and Team Trout Slayer will run a mini comp competitive fishing event on the Tuck on the 17th. There are numerous (mostly free) presentations and classes. We even have programs and events for your non-fishing significant others and kids.
On Friday night, we have teamed up with the folks at Little River TU to host the Back the Brookie BBQ. All profits from this event will support brook trout restoration in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
Immediately following the BBQ, we will be showing the Fly Fishing Film Tour in the Ramsey Center.

From Dave Murdoch: I just wanted to pass along some info I found
on-line. The following link will take you to a copy of the Western North
Carolina Fly Fishing Trail map. It is a really nice map of some fly fishing
destinations in WNC. If you go to the web site you can request a copy of
the map. They will mail you a nice 11"x17" laminated, two-sided map.
Tight Lines!
