About ETFC

Established in 1953,  The Edmonton Trout Fishing Club is the oldest trout fishing club in Alberta.

The objectives of the Club are to provide for a community in which members may develop their angling knowledge and skills, to maintain property at Spring Lake for the benefit of its members, and to support the mission and objectives of the Alberta Wildlife Federation. The club has a property at Spring Lake, which is available to members for picnics, barbecues and fishing.  

Club membership is open and we actively encourage anyone interested to join whether they are experienced fly fishers or have never fished before. 

The club bylaws were last updated in February 2023. 

Meetings, which normally have a short business meeting followed by an invited speaker, typically occur once a month from January to May on the 1st Tuesday of each month, with a Spring BBQ in June.  We pause for the summer fishing season and hold two meetings in the fall. On the 3rd Tuesday of October and November followed by the Xmas Brunch in December to cap off the year.

The club is a non-profit organization that has been supported by the contributions of many individuals and businesses since its inception in 1953. We’d like to thank them for their past assistance. In particular we thank the Fishin’ Hole for its many contributions to our fundraising events and the generous discount that it provides to our members on purchases from its stores. Please consider visiting the Fishin’ Hole the next time you need gear to support your fishing related activities.
