Severe storms didn't deter several students from showing up to our Fly Fishing 101 clinic yesterday morning. They learned about the equipment, terminology, casting, leaders and much more. We improvised on the casting doing it indoors using a 6'6" rod... and it worked quite well. All the students did very well on the casting and hands-on knots, and left excited and anxious to get started.
Many thanks to Darin Lee, Catch Cormier, Micheal White, Jeff Ferguson, and Mike Carlin for their instruction and assistance. We plan to do another FF101 early next year. And hopefully, NO storms!
