Fly Fishing Fundamentals At The Farm With Ladyfish
Overview
You say camping, we hear Glamping. That’s what we want you to think when we say fly fishing! You just know it’s going to be over the top! Join us for a day at our gorgeous farm venue where you’ll learn everything about fly fishing from Jess Michie of Ladyfish East.
10 am – 10:30 am | Meet & Greet Mimosas
Meet everyone you’ll be fishing with for the day. We’ll chat about our experience with fly fishing, comfort levels for the day, and get to know each other.
10:30 am – 12 pm | Intro to Casting
Get a hands-on intro to fly rods, line, flies, and terminal tackle. You’ll learn the fundamentals of casting and how everything works.
12 pm – 1 pm | Picnic Lunch and Wine
Relax with a curated lunch and wine pairing as we reflect on the skills we’ve garnered so far and the pond fishing ahead.
1 pm – 3 pm | Fishing the Pond
We’re going to be casting for fish, learning how to set the hook, netting fish, proper fish handling, and proper releasing of fish. The pool is open and we’ll have refreshing drinks to share.
What To Bring
Come dressed for the weather with comfortable clothing and shoes. We'll be outdoors the entire class with a break for lunch in the middle. We have all of the fishing gear taken care of. Bring your water bottle, sunscreen. Hats and polarized sunglasses are recommended (any sunglasses will do and help protect your eyes during casting).
Your Host
Ladyfish
It’s about the beautiful places where fish live. It’s about trying a new fly on a new piece of water. It’s about understanding life and how it works. And for me, it’s about sharing the passion. Fly fishing is a lifelong journey of fish, bugs, gear, and conservation. I may not teach you to rip a lip but I will show you a new way to explore the beautiful world around you. Let’s get your first fish on the fly!
