About Us
Who We Are
Granite Bay Flycasters (GBF) is a nonprofit, family-oriented club organized to promote fisheries conservation, catch and release fly fishing, and related crafts and skills.

What We Do
Club activities include a monthly meeting, organized (and un-organized) fishing trips, fly tying classes and informal get-togethers, casting clinics, net-building and rod-building workshops, an annual picnic and youth activities. Activities are planned to encourage participation by all family members.

Our Meetings
Monthly meetings feature local (and sometimes world-renowned) experts who speak about fishing techniques and/or destinations, conservation activities, or other pertinent topics.  Each meeting also involves the telling of tall tales (and other local fishing news), reports on club activities, and perhaps most importantly, the opportunity to meet and mix with other people who share your fly fishing interest!

Conservation
As part of our conservation program, we sponsor over 60 Salmon/Steelhead egg-rearing aquariums at public and private schools within the Sacramento, Placer, and El Dorado county areas in association with the Calif. Dept. of Fish & Game's Classroom Aquarium Educ. Program.  Other projects have included a comprehensive stream restoration project on the Bear River and assistance with construction of an impressive interpretive display at Heenan Lake.
