Dra Troutfest
We’ve intentionally scheduled our Oregon event to coincide with the Deschutes River Alliance (DRA) Troutfest, which will take place over the weekend of our event.
This partnership creates a unique opportunity for participants to connect, learn from industry experts, and come together in celebration of the Deschutes River. Troutfest will feature a vibrant community atmosphere with educational clinics, delicious food, refreshing beer, and live music.
We strongly encourage all registrants to download WhatsApp before the event and join the Oregon DIY Logistics WhatsApp Group. This is the official channel for important updates, event logistics, and emergency alerts related to the iFishiBelong DIY Fishing Event. Keeping the Logistics group focused helps ensure everyone stays informed and organized throughout the event.
Please note: This group is not for chatting, making fishing plans, or general discussion. For those purposes, use the Oregon Angler Connection WhatsApp Group or the Oregon iFishiBelong Facebook Group.
