ADAPTIVE ANGLERS 2025

I want to give a huge shout out to all our amazing TA Adaptive Guides and support staff who made the 22nd annual ADAPTIVE ANGLERS ON THE FLY- Fly Fishing Camp for Persons with Disabilities a tremendous success. Our longstanding partnership with Thomas Jefferson Trout Unlimited (TJTU) has been so important for everyone involved.

The snow did not stop our Bug Slinger™️Warriors. Throughout the weekend 12/6 and 12/7 we had 10 adaptive guides and support staff who contributed 155 hours of service. THANK YOU!

* Several new fly patterns (artificial aquatic insect imitations ) were learned and created at the vises.
* When it was all said and done, countless trout were caught & released.

We served 10 adaptive anglers (spinal cord injury (SCI) spina bifida (SB), traumatic brain injury (TBI) primordial dwarfism (PD), cloacal exstrophy (OEIS) autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as well as siblings, and dads.

Therapeutic Adventures camps promote universal access to adaptive sports and adaptive outdoor adventures.

22nd annual ADAPTIVE ANGLERS ON THE FLY—Fly Fishing Camp.

This past weekend, 12/5-12/7 Therapeutic Adventures (TA) in partnership with Thomas Jefferson Trout Unlimited (TJTU) hosted the 22nd annual ADAPTIVE ANGLERS ON THE FLY—Fly Fishing Camp.

Thank you to all our Adaptive Anglers, TA families, and our volunteer TJTU Adaptive Guides for your flexibility and commitment as we made adjustments to deal with the unexpected snow ❄️ that arrived on 12/4-12/5.

We served 6 Adaptive Anglers, two siblings, and two dads who joined us.

Yes, Mother Nature provided us with some beautiful snow. This did not, however, keep our Bug Slinger™️ Warriors from “catching and releasing” many beautiful trout on Saturday and Sunday.

As always, we are known for providing great homemade meals. Saturday morning we provided an assortment of tasty breakfast casseroles, pastry, and juices, coffee and tea.

After breakfast, we provided a session on fly tying and aquatic entomology. Our Bug Slinger™️ Warriors learned two new fly patterns.

We then headed to the river for some fly fishing. The flys (insect imitations) were what the trout wanted to eat. Our Adaptive Guides in partnership with our Bug Slinger™️ Warriors got it done.

Check out some of the great pics.

At the end of the day, back at the lodge and by the big fireplace, everyone shared fish stories, fellowship, and some tasty soups, chili, sandwiches, and an assortment of desserts.

Our fireside “slumber camp” is a favorite for all who attend. Throughout the evening, we kept the fire stoked, as cots and sleeping bags jockeyed for position close to the massive fireplace.

On Sunday after another great breakfast, our Adaptive Anglers and Adaptive Guides returned to the Moormans River to “catch and release” more trout. So many fish were caught, that the numbers became countless.
