Women’s Novice Fly Fishing School – Grand Lake Stream,…
Find Out MoreWeatherby’s Novice School for Women is for the person that has never tried fly fishing or someone that has learned casting but has never really caught any fish. We start at the beginning, learning about rods, lines, reels, leaders, tippet and flies. We cover fly selection, reading the water, wading safety, entomology, knots, a little bit of fly tying and a whole lot more! We will be fishing with nymphs, streamers, and dry flies for landlocked salmon and brook trout in Grand Lake Stream as well as streamers and poppers for smallmouth bass in the surrounding waters. So little time and so much to learn. This is just the beginning of a life-long pursuit.

All fishing gear – waders, rods, reels, lines, flies – will be included if needed.
Four nights, three days, $1495 per person.

Women’s Intermediate Fly Fishing School – Grand Lake Stream,…
Find Out MoreWeatherby’s Intermediate School for Women will focus on early season nymph and streamer fishing techniques used to catch landlocked salmon. We will be sight nymphing for salmon, learning how to outfit your rod, select flies and present them to salmon lying in wait. We will also learn to cast sink tip lines with streamers focusing on presentation of the fly in order to entice a fish to strike. In addition will learn about early season wading safety and how to dress to stay warm in cold water. This is a fishing and learning experience that will allow participants to be comfortable and confident fishing on their own or with friends after the school. Although you don’t need to be an experienced angler, some experience with fly casting/fishing is helpful. We will teach you the rest!
