Hello all,
This year, I bought a fly fishing pole for a good deal on black Friday. I have no idea if I will like fly fishing, but I am committed to give it a good try.
I will be mostly trout fishing, so I picked up a Redington 5wt CT outfit. I'm pretty happy with my purchase.
I have heard from many people that they recommend taking a basic class to get started with casting, setup, fly choices, etc. I think this is a great idea, but have no idea where to go for this. I have seen a few places in the valley that offer something like.
Obviously, this wouldn't be until spring, but do any of you have any recommendations on a good place to take lessons? I would like to focus my learning on casting, where and how to locate fish, and fly choices/insect entomology.
One thing I don't want is a guide to just take me out and catch fish. I want to be taught how to do things right, not just taken out to fish.
Thanks!
