The MFFA is an active organization. Members and
interested parties meet on a weekly basis through most of the winter
months, teaching and learning fly fishing and related skills.
Visitors are always welcome. Once the ice melts it's time for club
outings, and the release of all that pent-up fly fishing energy.
If you have an interest in fly fishing, please
join us at one of our weekly winter meetings. Send us an email from
the contacts page;
we'll do our best to see that you get as much enjoyment out of fly
fishing in Manitoba as we do!
All meetings, unless otherwise specified, are
scheduled for 7:30 pm, rooms 105 & 106 at Kildonan East Regional
Secondary School, 845 Concordia Ave. Winnipeg, MB.
Note: Bold print listings in the calendar below indicate club activities not
