- "Basics
for Beginners" NEW!
Taught
by Kevin W. Erickson
Designed for those of you who have never fly fished
before or are just beginning to those at an
intermediate level looking to leap ahead in
knowledge, skills and enjoyment. Our class is 4 hours of instruction and will prepare
you for many situations and give you the know-how
and confidence to grow as a successful angler over
your flyfishing lifetime.
The
first half of the class consists of a two hour
lesson covering:
The best tackle for different fish and
varied conditions – rods, reels and fly lines.
Leaders and Tippets – what they are and how
to select the correct sizes.
How to assemble your tackle and maintain it.
The best knots to use and how to tie them.
Important accessories to save you time on the
water.
Basic aquatic entomology and other food
sources important to the fish.
Flies to have for all situations, from
"matching the hatch" to attractors and when to use
them.
The
second half is a two hour hands-on
fly casting lesson and demonstration of fishing
techniques for when you are on the water, held in a local
park-like setting. This includes:
Fishing techniques for stationary fishing and while
wading.
Retrieval methods and speeds for different fly
styles.
Setup and approach when fishing nymphs at various depths.
How to hook, fight and land
fish.
And much, much more.
