Yellow Breeches Fly Fishing School

What's it all about?

Be a part of our Fifteenth Annual Program of one-day fly fishing instruction, tailored to the neophyte fly fisher.

By the day’s end you will know how to assemble your rod & reel, rig a leader and select a fly. You’ll know where to find fish and how to cast to them. You’ll also know how to fight, land and release your quarry…and be prepared to do it all over again.
We cover the basic cast and how to shoot line, the roll cast, knots (the Perfection Loop, Double Surgeon’s Knot, and Improved Clinch Knot). Our informative slide show will teach you how to read water, detail trout behavior and characteristics, review basic entomology and fly selection, fly-fishing equipment, fish fighting, and catch and release techniques.

Where...

Our school is held at Yellow Breeches Outfitters. The classroom portion is held in the meeting room at the shop. Casting and presentation is held by Children’s Lake behind the shop. The hands-on fly fishing experience takes place on the nationally acclaimed Yellow Breeches Creek.

Schools begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. and conclude around 5:00 p.m. Your fly-fishing adventure includes lunch, professional instruction, a fly fishing instruction book, use of equipment and a box of flies.
