Do you want to Learn to Fly Fish? Our Full Day On-the-Stream Fly Fishing Schools are a great introduction to fly fishing. Since 1962 Harry Murray has honed these schools to be the most informative Fly Fishing Lessons available. From the beginner to the most advanced anglers, these schools cover techniques and tactics used in both bass fly fishing and trout fly fishing. We conduct the Full Day On-the-Stream Schools from the fly shop in Edinburg, VA. Each day begins with a presentation at the fly shop then we drive to either the North or South Fork of the Shenandoah River to spend the remainder of the day on the water learning to Fly Fish. Once on the river our knowledgeable and patient instructors will work with you one-on-one to improve your fly fishing skills, tactics and techniques. We customize the On-the-Stream Fly Fishing portion of these schools to meet your specific needs and goals. The format we follow creates a great Introduction to Fly Fishing Class. These schools provide you with the most comprehensive experience available. You will come away prepared to fish Smallmouth Bass rivers and large trout streams. You will learn, or brush up on, casting, fly fishing equipment selection (fly rod/fly reel/ fly line/ flies/ wading gear), knot tying, reading water, entomology and all aspects of fly fishing for Smallmouth Bass. We spend the majority of the time on the stream to maximize your individual learning experience so come prepared to wade in the river and fish for several hours.
