Optional Fly Fishing Track

TSgt Ryan Padgett, USAF (Ret.), and guides from Bold Face Fly Fishing will lead Spring Canyon’s Summer Celebration Fly Fishing Track. Experience the beauty, wonder, and delight of God’s amazing creation while building fun new skills under exceptional instruction. Bold Face Fly Fishing is a nonprofit that thanks “everyday heroes” (military, first responders, and healthcare workers) and introduces them to the peace, excitement, and fellowship of fly fishing.

This optional track includes 2.5 days of hands-on instruction and fly fishing experience at Spring Canyon and the nearby Arkansas River Valley.
- Day 1 (Spring Canyon Ponds): Gear assembly, knot-tying, and casting fundamentals
- Day 2 (Arkansas River): Nymphing and dry fly fishing, visiting a local fly fishing outfitter, approaching the water, fishing on site!
- Day 3 (Arkansas River): Care and release of fish, knowing and respecting local regulations, fishing on site!
- Bring your catch back to Spring Canyon and let our kitchen team cook and serve them for you!
