GRTU will be hosting the 9th annual Youth Trout Camp (YTC) this January over the MLK Day Holiday weekend January 12-14, 2023 at Rio Guadalupe Resort. Participants will gain first-hand knowledge and experience on the Guadalupe River Trout Fishery. Kids aged 12-17 and one parent or guardian will learn about our Trout fishery, fishing knots, fly casting, how to tie flies, river ecology and water quality, and hear from Texas Parks and Wildlife Game Wardens. The highlight of the weekend is hands down the fish stocking Saturday morning and guided fishing on Sunday morning. Youth anglers get a chance to fish with experienced guides and GRTU members for trophy Rainbow trout!
Please spread the word. If you know a kid that would a good fit for the YTC, please direct them to the website for more details. Applications close on Sunday Oct. 29, 2023.
Also, Kids need flies. If you tie flies or have extra flies laying around the YTC will put them to use. We will also gladly take gently used gear and pass it on to the kids. Please reach out to me if you would like to donate flies or gear and we can coordinate a meetup.
