One of the many great things about America is the freedom we all share, we can believe in different things and still enjoy our time on the river together. We believe business should give back to their communities and their country and we support causes that help bless people’s lives, and help, encorage and develop the youth of our community. To that end, we support The Mayfly Project, Welcome Home Montrose, Project Healing Waters, Gunnison Gorge Anglers TU, Able Women, and Montrose High School Athletics. All of these organizations work to make life better for our community.
The Mayfly Project is a national 501(c)(3) on a mission to mentor children in foster care via the sport of fly fishing. We provide opportunities for children in foster care to have fun, build self-esteem, and develop a meaningful connection with the outdoors. TMP Participants Receive: 1:1 mentor ratio - Fly fishing and conservation education - Experience 5 fly fishing outings - Receive their own gear to fly fish

Able Women is a public outreach initiative designed to spread the word about fly fishing and the many emotional, physical and spiritual benefits it brings to women. Fly fishing teaches independence, strength, and creativity. It is a sport very much defined by grace. And who understands grace better than a woman? Fly fishing binds us to astoundingly beautiful creatures that live in remarkably beautiful places. And fly fishing binds us – perhaps most importantly of all – to our inner, most beautiful selves. Able Women is an federally recognized 501(c)(3) Colorado non-profit organization.
