Partners
Our mission to help Restore Arkansas means two things to us:
Restore are local fisheries and maintain our wildlife.
Give back to our community by using the benefits of our sport.
In order to live the second half of our mission, we have partnered with a few different non-profit organizations in our area.
The Mayfly Project
The Mayfly Project is a non-profit organization that uses fly fishing as a method to mentor children in foster care. Their mission is to build relationships with children in foster care through fly fishing and introduce them to their local water ecosystems to connect them to a lifelong hobby to allow these children to have fun, feel supported, and develop a meaningful connection with the outdoors
