Each class will cover: 
·Tackle Setup/rigging up
·Knots 
·Fly Fishing Terminology 
·Flies--Identification of basic insects and the imitations that match them 
·Casting Instruction--basic types of casting that you will need to be successful. 

Two hour casting lessons on the "lawn" are $100 person, $50 for each additional person, up to four anglers.

Bring your own gear, or we can provide it.

Private Group? No problem!
Get 4-6 people together and we can arrange a private beginner class just for you and your family or friends.

Consider a 1/2 day guided trip, where we combine instruction with guided fishing and the chance to catch trout or bass on the stream.
