Southern Council Clubs are asked to send their entire roster annually to VP Membership who forwards the lists to Managing Director in a timely manner for updating of database. Clubs should include their dues and a list of officers for the current term. Clubs should send new members' name and address changes that occur during the year directly to Managing Director for inclusion in database. Managing Director will annually purge names of individuals who are no longer club members or members in good standing.
If you are a member of an FFI Affiliate Club or Charter Club, please indicate your primary club affiliation field on the FFI membership form. Your club gets incentives for new members and it is important FFI have that information. If there is no local club affiliate or charter club near your location, you can become a member-at-large. Either way you can join FFI by visiting and completing forms found at the following URL:

FFI Membership Dues Changes (Effective March 02, 2026)
For more than 15 years, membership dues across most levels have remained unchanged. During that time, the cost of delivering programs, supporting our community, and operating the organization has steadily increased. After careful review and thoughtful discussion, the Board of Directors has approved a modest dues adjustment to ensure Fly Fishers International remains strong, sustainable, and well-positioned for the future.
Here’s what to expect:
- Standard Memberships will now be $45.00 per year.
- Youth, Senior, and Veteran Memberships will continue to receive discounted rates. Youth memberships will be $25,
while Senior and Veteran will be $35 per year, which still provides a deep discount off the standard rate. - Enhanced Membership Levels (Advocate, Patron, Sustainer) will remain unchanged.
These changes allow us to continue investing in the programs, education, and community connections that define Fly Fishers International, while supporting long-term financial stability and our strategic vision.
We’re deeply grateful for your continued support and commitment to the fly fishing community. Your membership makes everything we do possible, and we remain focused on delivering value, connection, and leadership for anglers around the world. Thank you for being part of Fly Fishers International.
FFI Membership Incentives
Receive Merchandise for New Members!
Your council or club receives a member credit for every member you recruit. For every 12 new FFI members your club recruits, your club receives $75 towards the purchase of merchandise through our Industry Partner Program (IPP). Clubs and councils can utilize the IPP program to purchase fly fishing products as an incentive for recruiting new FFI members and retaining existing members to FFI.
