Q: Where will the lesson be at?

A: All depends on your experience level and ability to learn. Fly casting in a muscle memory type of activity and can sometime take practice to get the full feel. We will teach you what you need to learn and practice to get your ability where you want it. Sometimes it can take more than one lesson to achieve this but most people catch on in a single lesson and can practice on their own after. 

Q: Can you help refresh someone before a trip?
A: Yes, this is something we do often even for the most experienced anglers.
