CANCELLED: 2020 MHTU Trip Catskill Fly Fishing Center & Museum

Trout Fishing in the Catskills (May 15-17, 2020)  

The Livingston Manor/Beaverkill Valley area of the Catskills is the cradle of Fly Fishing in America. The history, tradition, culture, and artifacts of fly fishing are all here at the Catksill Fly Fishing Center and Museum.  The surrounding waters are some of the finest trout streams in the Eastern USA.

Mid Hudson Trout Unlimited's annual outing to the Catskills will take place from Friday, May 15 to Sunday, May 17.  As in past years, accommodations will be at the CFFCM bunkhouses.  The bunkhouse, located on museum property, are the perfect base camp from which to explore and fish the fabled area waters -- Willowemoc Creek (which runs through the property), Beaverkill River, and the East and West branches of the Delaware River.  

This is a great opportunity to meet up with MHTU members and enjoy a weekend of fun, camaraderie, and fishing.
