The Virginia Capital Chapter, Virginia's first TU chapter, was
formed in Richmond in 1971 by the late Joe Brooks, author of
numerous fishing books. We provide low cost instruction in
fly fishing and fly tying, and free
casting clinics. Chapter members participate in statewide
conservation activities, including stream cleanups, water quality
testing, and stream surveys. We help to provide funding for stream
improvement projects, and for litigation to preserve the right of
access of Virginians to public waters. The chapter has been honored
by the National Forest Service for its work on its adopted stream,
the North Fork of the Buffalo River. The chapter also collects and
disseminates information regarding pending legislation and
administrative regulations of interest to fishers. Chapter members
fish around the country, and around the world, for many species of
fish, and freely share their knowledge of destinations and techniques.
Sometimes, we even tell fish stories....Our regular meetings take place on the third Tuesday of each month at 7:30 pm in the Board Room of the Virginia Department of Game & Inland Fisheries at 4010 West Broad Street in Richmond. Visitors (even non-fishers) are always welcome!
