From the New Member Orientation meeting we had in February, it was obvious that we need to provide some introductory skills and knowledge to members who are just starting out in fly fishing.  Instead of building some complicated training program, we are going to start by providing short skills development before the fly casting clinic and the general meetings.   The first one, will be about basic fishing knots.

We will be working on FFI skills development course from the Bronze and Silver levels. If you’re not familiar with these exercises, it would be a great time to come out and see what it’s all about. The skills are directed at improving your casting skills, and will improve your overall fly fishing success. This will be a perfect time for those folks who are just getting started, to learn some basic core casting techniques.  I will have practice rods if needed.  Hope to see you there.

This will cover the basics of setting up, breaking down the fly rod.  Practice and a few simple tricks will make you proficient.  Another topic covered will be how to secure your rod and flies when moving from one area to another.
