Our Fly Fishing Trips

The FATC takes many fly fishing trips in Missouri and throughout the U.S. each year. Our fishing trips in Missouri include the Current river, Meramec river, North Fork of the White River, Little Piney, Lake Taneycomo and more. We regularly fish all of the State trout parks in Missouri too. Our “out of State” trips have included Yellowstone, Montana, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, Alaska, Virginia and more. Our fellowship has also gone out of country to fish to include Belize, Iceland, Christmas Island, New Zealand and more. Here are reports from our most recent trips. All trips are open to all fellowship members. To see all past trips use the search bar and check this page. Interested in attending a trip?
