DCFF Mentor Program
Remember when you were a novice fly fisher and wished you had someone you could call with questions or ask for advice? Maybe even head out to a local stream for a little one-on-one on-the-water time to try out that new rod or just learn a little about the fishing hole? Well DCFF is starting a mentor program to help newbies get started, but we need mentors. We are currently compiling a list of club members who are willing to be mentors. If you are interested in sharing your knowledge of fly fishing with someone new to the sport click here and scroll down to the Mentor Program paragraph to get more information and to sign up. To date, we have seven “teams” and things are going great.
If you are interested in getting a mentor, please contact John Froehlich, our Education Director at jfroehlich@derbycityflyfishers.com

Items Needed
More than anything, we need volunteers. We need people to step forward and be willing to lead trips or help with our educational and community service activities and events.
New leadership personnel are always welcome to serve as an officer or on the board of directors. If you are interested in exploring the volunteer opportunities with DCFF, please contact the president or one of the other board members! You do not have to be an expert fly fisher to help run the club, and if you get involved, you will get the contacts you need to become a better fly fisher!
