Bring it to the river
Whatever’s weighing you down, wade on in with guys that will hold your net and have your back.
LONELINESS DOESN’T
STAND A CHANCE
Too many men struggle alone. Fishing the Good Fight is a community of men and therapists dedicated to helping men address their mental health struggles through community, fishing and the outdoors. More than becoming better fishermen, we help each other become better men.


Fly Fishing + Community + Mental Health

77% of men polled have suffered with symptoms of common mental health conditions such as anxiety, stress or depression.

40% of men have never spoken to anyone about their mental health.

29% of those say they are “too embarrassed” to speak about it, while 20% say there is a “negative stigma” on the issue.
Building Ties That Bind
Fly tying nights, fish-alongs, men’s groups, and multi-day retreats. We believe that great things happen when guys get together.

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.
