Fly Fishing School

The Colorado Mountain Club Fly Fishing School

Each year, usually in May or June, the instructors in the Fly Fishing Section give of their knowledge, skills and time to teach beginners how to flyfish. The class is designed for those with little or no experience. Students provide their own rod, reel, line waders, boots and license. We provide most everything else. The course consists of two evening lectures of three hours each, one Saturday field trip and one weekend field trip. Basic skills and knowledge are emphasized that are a pre-requisite to most CMC fly fishing trips. Enrollment is limited to 15-20. For questions please call the school director, Jonathan Walter at 303-456-6279 before 9 PM.
