Malden Anglers
Malden Anglers' is a fly-fishing club founded in 1947 located in Saugus, Massachusetts just minutes from Boston. Accepting new members !
Malden Anglers’ Thomas Lew and Craig Andree turned the shore along Peabody Institute Library’s Mill Pond into a fly‑fishing classroom last night! From 6–9 PM, a dozen kids and parents learned how to set up their gear, cast, and even practice etiquette and respect for the sport and nature.
And yes — the class was FREE. Free rods to try, free tips, free laughs, and free memories along Mill Pond. The only thing anyone paid was attention.
Huge thanks to the library for hosting and to all the families who came out. It's one of Malden Angler's missions to be ambassadors of the sport to the community and especially to these young future sportsmen.
Before heading off for summer break, the fourth graders from St. Joseph’s School surprised us with a wonderful gesture: a bundle of handwritten/drawn thank‑you notes and cards for every Malden Anglers volunteer who helped make their field trip special. Ms. Irene King’s class even included a few photos from their day exploring the pond.
All the cards were a joy to read, this one gave us an extra smile. “Going fly fishing was one of the most exiting (sp) things I’ve ever done in my life, and I promise I’ve done a lot of exiting (sp) things in my life. - Zoey”
Zoey, that’s exactly what our club hopes to do — share the exciting joy of angling with our community. We’re thrilled you had such a memorable experience, and we hope your time with us sparked an even deeper appreciation for the sport and the great outdoors.
