About

NorCal Women On The Fly is a friendly group of women who love getting outside and fly fishing together. We’re here to help each other learn, grow, and feel confident on the water. There are plenty of great places to fish nearby, and we’d love to show you around. If you don’t have gear, we can help with that too. Whether you’re brand new or already experienced, you’re welcome here. Come hang out with us and fish!

Jennie Felkins

Founder

Jennie Felkins grew up fishing with her dad, but fly fishing hooked her for good in 2020. She’s now focused on catching everything on the fly and building a supportive community for women in the sport. Jennie loves helping anglers feel welcome and seen, and nothing beats hearing someone say they “found themselves” on the water. Her favorite spots range from her secret dirt-road hideaway to Lake Almanor and Belize.

Jennifer Hayes

Jen Hays fell in love with fly fishing after moving to Chico, even though she grew up catching bass on Clearlake. She’s a second-grade teacher who helped start NorCal Women On The Fly with Jennie so more women could fish together. When she’s not teaching, she’s out fishing, biking, or hunting. Jen loves still-water lakes, tossing dry flies, and chasing stripers on the Sacramento River. She’s grateful for the friends she’s made through NCWOTF and loves helping other women get started.
