Women's Beginner Fly Fishing Boot Camp
Please join us for this enlightening and restorative weekend as you are introduced to the zen of fly fishing. You need only bring your enthusiasm, curiosity, and willingness to learn. Meals, including an additional lunch on Sunday, as well as accommodations, optional evening activities, and historical tour are all included with your registration.
Terminal tackle, including leader, tippet, and flies, will be provided. Participants can bring their own fly rod & reel, purchase a discount rod & reel combo that will be made available through the DEC. A limited number of rental combos will also be available (while supplies last). Rental and purchase information will be made available several weeks before the bootcamp begins.
