2023 Woman's Clinic

2023 Woman's Fly Fishing Clinic - For Women and taught by women!

If you have ever wanted to learn to fly fish but have not learned as of yet, Kelly Creek Flycasters has the solution for you. The course is for women and taught by women. It features a combination of casting instruction along with classroom sessions on the different aspects of fly fishing including:
          Fly fishing equipment and clothes
          Entomology (what bugs fish eat)
          Flys (to imitate those bugs and more)
          Reading the Water (Where fish are likely to be)

Following 3 weeks of one night per week casting and classrooms instruction, you will have a chance to try out your newfound skills on the water when you attend the weekend camping / fishing trip on the North Fork of the Clearwater River at Washington Creek campground. You will fish with a mentor who will help you put into practice your newfound skills and hopefully catch your first fish on a fly!
