Now that you understand the basics of fly fishing, learn the specifics for catching Steelhead Trout. Jeff Liskay will teach you about the best rig for catching steelhead, various casting techniques, and how to read the water to find the best steelhead fishing locations.
The class will start in the classroom and end with an on-water demonstration by Jeff. Fishing license is not required for this class. Feel free to bring your own equipment if you would like Jeff to evaluate your casting techniques. Classes will begin promptly, so plan to arrive early. Please bring a completed
