In our classes we normally cover fly casting, knot tying and rigging,reading water, entomology, fly selection, and stream etiquette. Also, as part of the course we give students insight into the fly fishing opportunities locally, regionally, nationally, and even abroad. Our classes are hands on, we learn everything by doing. Some folks start the class having never fished at all, or having done no fishing of any kind. Others maybe have begun but need some direction. Still others have been fly fishing for a while and just want to learn or correct some bad habits. In any case I can help and would love to have you join me for a class. It is great to have something like fly fishing that you can have fun learning, see some beautiful places, and catch some fish too!
Due to customer interest we are offering what we call an On the Water Fly Fishing School. The one on one, one on two focus allows us to provide the same instruction we offer in our regular classes and do it on the river while under actual fishing conditions. I will be at your side teaching you to read water (find fish!), cast, rig, and present your flies properly, how to hook, land, and release fish too. We will learn by DOING...just like the Nike saying goes "Just do it." A great way to get someone into the sport. This instruction is by appointment just like a guided trip, you can book a day by calling 336.644-7775, or by email. Lasts approx 4 hrs. $150 for one angler, $250 for two anglers, or $300 for three anglers. Makes a great gift for a friend, family member, or loved one. Gift Certificates available. Waited til the last minute and can't find a gift? No worry, we can do a last minute gift which is a printable e-Gift Certificate and have it in your hands with a couple of clicks.
