The 18th annual FLY FISHING FILM TOUR (F3T) is back on the road with a top notch selection of short films that are sure to get you fired up for the season ahead! There will be films that take you into the science of the Costa Marlin Project, to the deep depths of the jungle for the massive Peacock Bass, and to a Steelhead story with characters as rare as the fish itself, plus MANY, MANY MORE! The F3T is the original and largest fly fishing film event of its kind and are proud to be an annual community event for all anglers.
Our local showing at the historic State Theater is hosted by the Stanislaus Fly Fishers and is a fundraising benefit for Rivers of Recovery, a non-profit organization providing outdoor, recreational, rehabilitative therapy for combat disabled veterans. Rivers of Recovery trips host up to eight combat veterans on a four-day, science-based, experiential rehabilitation program focusing on confidence building, outdoor activities, and talk therapy. Trips are conducted in a relaxed, positive environment using proven techniques on the self-management of symptoms, stressors and responses.
Multiple peer-reviewed studies have proven ROR’s system provides profound benefits: the fly fishing and hunting instruction processes increases self-confidence, the resulting skill-improvement builds empowerment, and the resulting achievement facilitates enthusiasm and resiliency. Being immersed in an outdoor environment accentuates these positives. The social interaction among participants reinforces a sense of success, empowerment, and a reconnection to self. All at no cost the veterans!
Come for the action, support our veterans,
