UWOTF Mission
United Women on the Fly (UWOTF) aims to empower and unite women in fly fishing through advocacy work, mentorship, and representation.
UWOTF Vision
UWOTF envisions a future where women hold significant roles in the fly fishing industry, contributing to innovation and leadership. We aim to create a community that advocates for women’s participation and embraces diversity. Through education and support, we strive to empower women to break barriers and achieve success in all aspects of fly fishing.
UWOTF Joins iFishiBelong
In 2023, UWOTF underwent significant structural changes, leading to its integration as a program within the newly established iFishiBelong nonprofit. Building on over eight years of community growth, this transition unlocks new funding opportunities and ensures the continued success of UWOTF. The program’s commitment to empowering women in fly fishing has expanded to embrace diversity across all species, techniques, and people, creating a more inclusive and equitable community.
