CASTING SCHEDULE (Updated 9/8/2007)

We have World-Class and North American champions in the club who can teach you everything you always wanted to know about fishing, including where to find excellent trout fishing within an hour's drive of Metropolitan Toronto.

We meet, teach and practice every second Thursday evening from 6:00 P.M. to 9:30 P.M., at the Robert Service Senior School gymnasium on the south side of Danforth Road, just east of Midland Avenue. When weather permits in May we move outdoors to Scarborough's beautiful Milliken park and pond where we have docks and targets set up to teach and practice casting under ideal conditions.

We have a limited amount of club equipment for newcomers to use, but encourage new members to bring out their own wherever possible for suggestive and creative criticism (where necessary) by our experts. Club members include children, men and women of all ages. Family participation is encouraged.
 

Our popular monthly bulletin, "The Reel Thing", eagerly anticipated and read by our members and others around the  world, includes valuable information for everyone. Of course, we organize several seasonal fishing trips, as well.

We conduct the annual Scarborough Open Fly & Bait Casting Championships and compete in regional, Canadian, North America, International and World Championships, with our members having won over a thousand awards in the twelve years since our club's inception.

We have well-known authors (angling subjects and otherwise) in the club including Governor General's and Stephen Leacock award winning writer, Paul Quarrington (see 'Fishing With My Old Guy') and have done numerous television shoots for T.S.N., C.T.V., C.B.C., and others. A number of former club members have done so well in the club that they have used their newly-acquired expertise to change careers, going into business for themselves, i.e. Fly Tying, Rod Building, Bass Pros, D.N.R. affiliation, etc.

Extremely reasonable annual dues:
Adult Family - $100.00
Jr. (Under 18) - $25.00
