Mastering the Basics of Fly Fishing: Pretest
Mastering the Basics of Fly Fishing was originally an
outline that I followed when I taught classes on fly fishing. Working
for an outfitter and fly shop owner in Hamilton, Montana, I taught a
number of parent/child introductory classes. Later when I set up my
Montana Fly Fishing site in the early 90's, I expanded this article for
adults who wanted to learn on their own, as well as parents wanting to
teach their children the skills of fly fishing. It continues to be one
of the most visited sections on my Montana site. The instructional
program is broken down into the sub-categories below. The entire article is stored on my companion web site, www.fishingtips101.com.
