While commonly associated with trout, fly-fishing is a great way to relax and test your angling skills against any kind of fish. Casting for different kinds of fish in different kinds of water at different times of the year can help you get more out of your gear, and it can help you hone your fly-fishing skills. We encourage you to discover for yourself that fly rodding is not just for trout. Remember, trout are just one species of fish that are fair game for a well-placed fly. Those interested must be 12 years of age or older to participate.
