About AFFTA

The American Fly Fishing Trade Association (AFFTA) is the sole trade organization for the fly-fishing industry.

Our Mission is to guide the sustainable growth of the fly fishing industry through Trade Development and Stewardship. We accomplish this by:

• Advocating for the fly fishing industry and empowering our members to improve their businesses through collaboration, education and building community.
• Advocating for healthy fisheries and engaging our members and partners to support protection, restoration, and access.

When you join AFFTA you help support the promotion of the sport of fly-fishing to new anglers whose fly-fishing purchases will build the economic growth and the importance of the fly-fishing industry. Your membership support also strengthens the association membership’s voice in legislative and environmental actions which are ongoing†and more and more directly affect our industry.
