- Jeff HVery knowledgeable and the use of science and principles of physics in the use of a fly rod gives you the tools to truly understand the why behind what is being taught so you can correct your casting in the right place instead of putting band aids on the problem. Just like golf - get to the right instructor and you will be able to improve with and without them!

- Paul BWell Worth It!! Like most beginning fly fishermen, I learned from friends. And, like most folks, I was reasonably successful at getting the fly to hit the water, or so I thought at the time anyway. The problem was that much of my fishing was on a nearby lake, and when the fish were rising, they were always ten feet farther than I could cast. After consulting with the internet, I endeavored to teach myself to double-haul. Instead, I taught myself to throw horrible, tailing loops. My leader had more knots than the USS Constitution!
