The Members of the Fourth Corner Fly Fishers (located in Bellingham, WA) are united by our
enjoyment of the sport of fly fishing and by
our desire to preserve and enhance fishing
opportunities for all. To these ends, we will
strive to promote conservation of angling
brotherhood and to broaden the
understanding of fellow anglers.
The purposes for which the Club was formed are:
- To operate a social club for the pleasure, association and recreation of its members engaged in fly fishing activities.
- To work to protect wild fish and the habitat which sustains them.
- To work for the betterment and preservation of angling waters and surrounding land.
- To improve the state of the art of flying fishing and to keep members informed of developments of interest.
- To develop and carry out programs of education designed to encourage individuals of all ages to become fly fishers and to promote ethical use of the resource.
About our club... On April 12, 1972, a group of ten
Bellingham, WA area men sharing common
interests in the sport of fly fishing,
conservation of our fishery resources
and the natural environment, organized
a club dedicated to those interests.
Thus, the
FOURTH CORNER FLY FISHERS.
Major environmental and stream
restoration projects have included Little
Deer Creek (tributary of the
Stillaquamish), Nesset Creek (tributary
of the Nooksack), and Boy Creek
Interpretive Salmon Center in cooperation
with the National Forest
Service.
For many years the FCFF has acted as
steward for Squalicum Lake, one of the
few "Fly Fishing Only" lakes in the
county. The club maintains a creel census
station constructed by the members at the
entrance to the lake.
The club works with the Nooksack
Salmon Enhancement Association
(NSEA) both financially and providing
volunteer labor on local rivers and for
conservation projects.
The FCFF is active in the educational
arena. We are actively working with
Western Washington University on
programs related to environmental,
entomology, fly fishing, fly tying, and
resource conservation. The programs are
offered to youth groups such as the FFA
and the Four H clubs as well as other
local groups.
Fellowship among club members is
perhaps one of the most rewarding aspects
of membership.
The FCFF club has monthly meetings,
year around club outings, and fundraising
auctions and raffles.
