Business Sponsor Spotlight: Epic Fly Rods...

Epic Fly Rods out of New Zealand has been a supporter of NFC since our inception. Over the years they have donated their best-in-class modern fiberglass fly rods to NFC to be raffled off to raise money to support our conservation efforts. In aggregate, they have been NFCs largest corporate sponsor to date.

Epic has also sponsored NFC Executive Director Bob Mallard’s native fish conservation column in MidCurrent, the most read online media if fly fishing. This column has covered important topics such as private stocking of public waters, branding native fish, manmade rock dams, wild refuges, chemical reclamation, etc.
