If your idea of a perfect Saturday involves less “mowing the lawn” and more “talking about the one that got away,” the Upper Missouri River Chapter of Walleyes Unlimited has the perfect lure for you. On Saturday, May 9th, the American Legion Post 42 in Townsend is transforming into the ultimate place for anglers and community fans alike for their annual Membership Drive & Fundraiser. Whether you’re a seasoned professional who can tie a fly in the dark or a total novice, come enjoy a free chili and cornbread dinner (donations are welcome!) while the kids score free fishing rods. With raffles and prizes on deck, it’s a golden opportunity to support Montana’s local habitats and ensure our waters stay as legendary as the stories we tell about them.
Beyond the hearty bowls of chili, this event is all about making a splash for a good cause. By joining the chapter, you’re helping protect fishing access and conservation efforts that keep the Upper Missouri River thriving for generations to come. It’s a casual, high-energy evening. Grab the family, bring your appetite (and fishing stories), and get ready to hook some great memories—no waders required.
