Beginner's Lessons
We love introducing people to the sport of fly fishing. Half days are usually preferred but full days are a great way to get the full flavor. We start with a lesson on dry land and then move to the water. Typically we will fish somewhere on the easy side where there is a good chance of catching your first fish on a fly. We can also rent you all the gear you need for your first day on the water.
Gear Rental
For the visiting angler who didn't bring his gear or the beginner who has not yet taken the gear plunge we can rent you the gear you need. At the shop we rent flyrods,waders and wading boots. Either full day or half day.
What Is A Guided Fly Fishing Trip All About?
Is a guided fly fishing trip of interest to you? Many of our guided trip fisherman are regulars at hiring a guide. Just as many are first timers at using a fly fishing professional. Reasons for hiring a guide are varied.
1. Beginners are looking for instruction as a large part of their fly fishing trip experience. Also, they hope to learn skills such as reading the water to locate fish, what flies to use, and identifying aquatic insects.
2. The experienced fly fisherman is often just trying to save time by having the guide show them around the area in which they will be vacationing so they can spend more time fishing and less time exploring.
3. Safety is a factor to some fisherman. Older anglers might have plenty of experience but don't feel save venturing into the woods on their own. Every year we take out fisherman in their 80's to safely enjoy time on the water.
4. Some people hire a guide to experience an adventure in a place that they would never go on their own. Many of our "Small Stream Trips" take us into more remote areas of beauty and solitude - not to mention lots of willing brookies.
