Each class will show you how to tie 3 different flies that all use one common material. Classes run from 7-9pm. $50 per class. Sign up for all of them and we’ll hook it up for $100 for all 3.

OPEN TIE NIGHTS | #HOPSANDHOPPERS

Every 1st Tuesday through the winter! Meet us at Lake Monster at 6pm and hang out and tie flies with us! It's also a great chance to come down and watch folks tie flies and you can pick up some new ideas. So even if you don't tie, stop by and share a fishing story or two. From 5-7pm at the shop we will offer 20% off fly tying materials if you stay and tie at Lake Monster.  FREE

  

FLY FISHING COLLEGE

A 2-day, in-depth, fly fishing class to get familiar with everything you need to know to be comfortable fly fishing on your own.

On Thursday evenings, we’ll meet from 6-9 in the shop. We’ll cover gear, bugs and flies, knots and more. On Saturday, we’ll meet on the water from 10-2. There we’ll practice casting, spotting fish, reading water, and identifying bugs. 

Classes will cover both trout and warm water fishing. The Saturday class will take place at a park where we have the best odds of catching fish depending upon current conditions. This may be a trout stream, or a lake for panfish. 

All gear is provided for class. You will need to purchase a fishing license if you will be fishing on Saturday. Please wear water-friendly pants and shoes on Saturday.  $120
