I went to one on the Mackenzie through Tightlines...or something like that. It was great, but a little bit of a drive. It is about a week long.

Get in touch with River city fly shop. (sponser) They are out of Beaverton off of Scholls Ferry rd. If they dont have one I bet they know who might.

Take a look at Twig #1 intro post - Jeff H runs the youth camp on the McKenzie - top notch guy - family has been in the fishing business since 1923. He told us some about the camp and when my daugher goes - I hope I can pass for 14, they get to do all sorts of really fun stuff - learning to tie flies, catch fish with their flies - learn to read water, hike up to little streams and fish little water for trout, to cook outdoors on an open fire, swimming in the river, learn to run a drift boat or raft, all sorts of stuff :grin:

Check out the Tight Lines Fishing web site (its all one word) - if the Mods ding it PM me. Jeff is a little slow to respond but thats cause he is in the middle of his busy season and on the river somewhere. The river youth camp link is broken.
