If you want to brush up on your fly casting, learn a new cast, or simply try it for the first time then this is the class for you.  On our casting lawn, I will teach you how to perform all of the standard casts as well as roll casts, curve casts, and shooting line.  After the casting class we will then proceed back to the fly shop where I will show you how to rig your tackle including the knots to use when putting your line and backing on a fly reel.  We provide the rod and reel outfits for you to use for the class or if you prefer you can bring your own.  

These classes are limited so pre-register.
