Fishing Program
There are BIG fish in the lakes at Falling Creek!
Fishing is a "special signup" activity at camp. This means you sign up for it on the day you want to do it. It will take place of your regular activities that day, or part of the day.
Falling Creek's fishing program is progression based. Campers first spend half a day learning the basics of how to tie knots, cast, and catch & release fish on camp's two lakes.
Boys can learn how to spin fish as well as fly fish. Falling Creek has a hatchery supported trout stream that flows through our river pastures where campers learn the basics of trout fishing before being qualified to go on out-of-camp fishing trips.
