Join us for California’s most anticipated flyfishing event: three days on legendary wild trout waters – the Pit, Fall, McCloud, Upper Sacramento Rivers, and Hat Creek. Your participation benefits California Trout and the work we do to protect and restore waters across the state. 

This exclusive event is limited to just six two-person teams, guided by the best in the business. Your challenge? Land the most fish, the biggest fish, or the longest total inches across five iconic rivers. Tactics are up to you (and local regulations) – bragging rights and a place on the coveted Five Rivers Trophy are on the line.
