We offer one-on-one and small group fly-fishing and casting lessons that can be tailored based on skill and area of interest.

This is a great opportunity for beginning anglers to delve into fly-fishing and gain hands-on experience.

Goals
After completing this workshop, you will be able to:

  • Understand the basics of fly casting

  • Effectively use equipment and gear

  • Differentiate between fly lines

  • Select flies and fish flies

  • Learn fly-fishing terminology/vocabulary 

  • Develop an eye for reading the water 

  • Apply safety precautions when fly-fishing along ocean coasts and marshes

For anglers starting out, we will meet at a beach to safely cover basic gear and casting. Then we will practice in the Atlantic Ocean and in saltwater marshes to experience the effect water has on your fly line and casting techniques. After establishing the foundation, we will go fishing!
