If you never pictured yourself fishing, reconsider.
Outcast Anglers are those who don’t match the archetype, who want to find belonging in community, and deepen their ties to the water.

Outcast Campouts are financially flexible group events with a choose your own adventure approach to fishing. Buddy up with fellow campers, hire a guide, take a day hike, or take a nap under a cedar — all are welcome here. Evening social + educational time will keep you learning from one another and sharing fishing stories around the campfire. We’ll hear from experts + community members on the regional heritage + complicated history of local fly fishing, conservation, entomology, decolonized considerations for the spaces we visit, and more.
