-Equipment selection
-Rigging options
-Bait/Fly/Lure selection
-Casting techniques
-Drift and float presentations
-Adjusting to changing conditions & finding fish
 
The class is limited to 6 students to maximize attention devoted to each student. Cost is per person. Class is 4 to 4.5 hours long, depending on group pacing.
 
All rods and reels will be provided, however if students wish to use their own equipment they are welcome to, so long as the setup is appropriate for the course content. Please contact us to check if your equipment will be suitable for this class.
