Casting for Recovery

Casting for Recovery is a national non-profit support and educational program for women who have or have had breast cancer.

We provide an opportunity for women whose lives have been profoundly affected by the disease to gather in a beautiful, natural setting and learn fly-fishing, "a sport for life." Just as importantly, we offer an opportunity to meet new friends and have fun.

Our weekend retreats incorporate counseling, educational services and the sport of fly-fishing to promote mental and physical healing.

Founded in 1996, Casting for Recovery has been offering free retreats across the country. We rely on local volunteers and organizations to support our community based retreats.

Fly Fishing Benefactors is proud to announce that we carry the Casting for Recovery TFO fly rods!  And, as an added benefit to Casting for Recovery, Fly Fishing Benefactors will also donate $25 to Casting for Recovery for every TFO Casting for Recovery Fly Rod sold on our website.  Our donation, added to the generous donation by TFO of $25, doubles the donation to Casting for Recovery!

We have added a new CFR Lapel/Hat Pin and have a special CFR water-tight box as well!  In addition to these new items, we stock Jim Teeny products including;  Teeny Pink fly line, pink backing, and pink CFR rod tubes. 

We have rounded out the CFR product line with the addition of the CFR aluminum fly boxes.  These boxes are new for 2012 and are in stock.  There are three sizes and this is a limited production run.  The Mini box, the large foam/foam and the 8-Window box are built in 100, 100, and 50 units respectively.  They won't last long, so get them while you can!
