Welcome to "Flyfishers at The Crossing"
"Come follow me, " Jesus said, " and I will make you fishers of men"
Mark 1:17
The Flyfishers at The Crossing is a St. Louis based, Missouri fly fishing community. Located in the West County area, we are part of the sports ministry program at The Crossing Community Church.
The members of this fellowship are dedicated fly fishers and, more importantly, disciples for Christ. The "Flyfishers at The Crossing" fly fish not only in Missouri but throughout the United States. Our members have fished as far away as Alaska, throughout the Rocky Mountain states, and the great rivers of Missouri. Some of our group trips have included the San Juan River in New Mexico, the North Fork River in southern Missouri, Lake Taneycomo in Branson, and many nearby trips to Cardiac Hill, Montauk, Meramac Springs, and Bennett Springs.
Our Flyfishers grew out of the The Crossing's sports ministry's fly fishing class which started in the Spring of 2007. The fly fishing class, an all encompassing, month and a half long class, is taught by fly fishing instructor Kenny Klimes. This class is taught every Fall and Spring. For more information about the class, click on the email button at the top of the page and email us with your questions. But, if you are already a flyfisher and looking for some great fellowship and superb fly fishing, come join us today!
As the legend goes, the first class wanted to continue the new friendships they had made in class. So the "Flyfishers at The Crossing" was formed. This community of flyfishers is now over 50 members strong. Throughout the year, trips are planned to hone their skills and strengthen their friendships. One last thing... from this group a men's Bible study was formed, known as the "fishers of men. " These men meet the second and fourth Sunday nights of the month. They also meet for breakfast on the third Monday morning of each month. See our schedule below... So whether it be the fly fishing class, the flyfishers group, or the "fishers of men" Bible study, please come join us and He will make you "fishers of men."
