Our
Introduction to Fly Fishing school is designed to get
you solidly grounded in the fundamentals needed to
enjoy fly fishing. After completing this school, you
should have all the skills and understanding necessary
to catch fish with a fly rod. The following topics
are included in the curriculum:
The Theory of Fly Fishing
Equipment Selection and Tackle Assembly
Knots and Line Connections
Fundamentals of Fly Casting
Fish Foods and Their Imitations
Entomology as it Relates to Fly Selection
Fly Fishing Strategies
Wading and Safety
Our Introduction to Fly Fishing schools are held during the winter so that you can work on your
fly fishing fundamentals in the ‘off-season’ and
be ready to catch fish in the spring. For your convenience, we typically offer classes in two formats, multiple week night evenings or a weekend session.
Our first Introduction
to Fly Fishing school in 2008 will meet from 6:00 - 8:00 pm every Thursday evening in February at the Ellsworth Adult Education Center in Ellsworth, Maine. Cost will be $75 per student. Please contact us for more details on this or other upcoming Introduction to Fly Fishing schools. |
