29% of those say they are “too embarrassed” to speak about it, while 20% say there is a “negative stigma” on the issue.

Fishing the Good Fight is more than just fly fishing, it’s a community of men. It’s a space where I can be real, let my guard down, and know I’m not alone. It’s brotherhood, purpose, and tranquility all wrapped into one.

Get Away To It All

We know how it felt that first time we hooked into a brown on a warm summer’s day, nothing can beat that feeling. But we also know what it feels like to struggle with mental health. If you join us on a retreat, you’ll get lots of time in nature on the water, meeting new, like-minded people, and talking with licensed professionals about the difficulties men face when it comes to the conventions of modern masculinity.

If you feel like you’re drowning, it helps to have a guide to the water.
