This weekend (Saturday, 9/12), we will be offering our FlyFishing 101 class out of our Salida shop. Details are listed below. This is an excellent opportunity for friends and family to get a start in fly-fishing and knock some money off the price of initial equipment. Call us at 719-539-4223 to sign up for this class.
Fly-Fishing 101
Learn to Fly-Fish for Free!!
There is no substitute for focused initial instruction when making a start in fly-fishing. Trying to go it alone, coupled with the perceived cost of equipment, often keep potential fly-fishermen from entering the sport.
ArkAnglers has a solution for both of these problems! Our new program, Fly-Fishing 101, combines 8 hours of classroom and on-river instruction with a $100 gift certificate – good for retail purchases at our shops in Salida, Buena Vista and Pueblo.
The course fee is $100/person. For that you will receive the $100 ArkAnglers retail gift certificate, the instruction, use of all equipment, flies, and terminal tackle. Participants will need a fishing license, lunch, and outdoor clothing appropriate for the season.
Topics of instruction will include: selection and rigging of equipment, aquatic insects and their imitations, trout behavior, “reading” the river, casting, fly presentation, and line management.
Salida Course Dates: 3/7, 3/21, 4/4, 5/16, 6/6, 6/20, 7/11, 7/25, 8/8, 8/22, 9/12, 9/26.
8-10 Person Class Size Required
