Welcome to High Country Fly Fishers
HCFF is a proud Trout Unlimited chapter dedicated to fly fishing, conservation, and community in the scenic beauty of Park City, Utah serving Summit and Wasatch counties. HCFF is a member of the Park City Chamber of Commerce. Since 1989, we’ve been passionate about protecting cold-water fisheries, supporting healthy trout populations, and sharing the art of fly fishing and fly tying. Our club offers hands-on conservation projects with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, Trout-in-the-Classroom programs for local students, and monthly fishouts where members enjoy camaraderie and refine their fly fishing skills on some of the region’s best waters. Join us at our our monthly meetings to hear from expert fishing guides, fly tyers, and fisheries biologists from across the West. Whether you’re an experienced angler or just starting out, HCFF offers friendship, learning opportunities, and memorable fishing adventures. Check our Activities page for details and upcoming events—new members and visitors are always welcome!

HCFF & Wasatch Expo Featured on KSL Outdoors
High Country Fly Fishers (HCFF) was recently featured on KSL Outdoors with Adam Eakle, showcasing the excitement of stillwater fly fishing at Strawberry Reservoir and the strong community behind our club. Adam highlighted what makes HCFF special—experienced anglers mentoring newcomers, innovative stillwater techniques that consistently produce large trout, and a deep commitment to the conservation of Utah’s fisheries.
From habitat improvement projects to building and maintaining public-access crossovers on the Weber River, HCFF members work year-round to improve and protect our home waters. The KSL Outdoors segment also spotlighted the Wasatch Fly Tying & Fly Fishing Expo, where HCFF,along with other local, clubs plays a major role—bringing together fly tiers, guides, outfitters, families, and anglers of all skill levels for two days of hands-on learning and celebration of the sport.
Watch the KSL Outdoors feature to see HCFF in action at Strawberry and learn why both our club and the Wasatch Expo continue to inspire anglers across Utah. We invite you to join us on the water, at our meetings, and at the Expo, April 10-11, 2026 to experience the education, camaraderie, and conservation spirit that define High Country Fly Fishers.
The Wasatch Fly Tying & Fly Fishing Expo is organized in collaboration with other Trout Unlimited and Fly Fishers International chapters. HCFF members play an active role in many aspects of the Expo and gain exposure to new equipment, innovative fly patterns, and fishing opportunities throughout Utah and the surrounding region.
Helpful skills include project management, Wi-Fi equipment installation, and general organizational support.
We are always looking for volunteers to assist with Expo planning and operations. If you’re interested in helping, please contact Eric Luna or Bill Quapp.
