The GGACC will again be hosting their annual World Championship of Spey Casting.
Bring a blanket or folding chairs to sit on the lawn while you enjoy the beauty and spectacle of this amazing fly casting, or wander around the exhibitors' tables when you need a break.
The casting ponds are located in Golden Gate Park (across from the buffalo paddock) just off John F. Kennedy Drive.
