Fly Fishing in the Esopus River

Eight cadets in the Fly Fishing club, under the club Cadet in Charge (CIC) acting also as Officer in Charge (OIC), safely conducted the day trip and linked up with members of the Mid-Hudson Trout Unlimited (TU) to fish the Esopus River. Weather and water conditions were nice, and the TU mentors helped the cadets catch rainbow and brown trout. Experienced cadets mentored beginners and the cadets learned from the TU club how another fly fishing club operates and learned insights from their years of experience on the Esopus River. The club is thankful for the support of DCA, external donations, and external volunteers that all were critical to make this trip successful.
