This class is for beginning anglers who want to learn or improve their fishing skills. At the class, attendees will learn how to select and set up fishing rods and reels, how to choose flies, and how to tie fishing knots.
Attendees will also learn about reading the water and the basics of fly casting, hooking and playing fish and being safe on the water. Lunch is provided and participants can borrow a fly fishing rod if they don’t have one. The class fee is $15 and registration is required.
