More ways to enjoy fly fishing.
HPD is more than a monthly meeting. Throughout the year, members fish, learn, travel, volunteer, and build friendships around healthy rivers and responsible angling.
Local outings and destination trips
Fish Colorado waters with knowledgeable members, or join overnight and destination trips—from relaxed local days to guided travel experiences.
Monthly programs and guest speakers
Meetings feature guides, authors, biologists, conservation leaders, and experienced anglers—bringing useful ideas, new destinations, and new fishing connections.
Fly tying, casting, and education
Build practical skills through fly tying, casting, entomology, equipment discussions, and informal member help. Beginners are always welcome.
Conservation and service
Support healthy waters through conservation education, river stewardship, community projects, and hands-on opportunities to give back.
Social events and lasting connections
Meet anglers at every experience level. Many fishing partners and lasting friendships begin at a meeting, outing, or fly-tying table.
Fly Fishers International resources
Connect with broader education, conservation, instructor programs, and member resources through our affiliation with Fly Fishers International.
