FFD 101/201 Classes
Our Fly Fishing 101 and 201 classes are taught by Dana Hooper. In these classes, you’ll be provided with a comprehensive introduction to fly fishing, and learn the basics of equipment, flies, knots, casting, reading the river, and safety. Best of all, the class concludes with a multi-day outing to Northern California’s Hat Creek region, where you’ll put your newfound skills into practice, with helping hands from club members.
