Attention Beginners!

Are you just starting out Fly Casting? Have you always wanted to learn to fly-fish? Or have you fished for several years and feel you could improve? This introductory lesson will teach you equipment basics and fly casting fundamentals that will last you a lifetime. This is a great way to get started in fly-fishing!

Attention Experienced Fly Casters!

Whether you're looking to cast 90 feet to a cruising bonefish or to improve your casting in windy conditions, or get started with Spey casting, a customized lesson will put you on the right track to improving your fly casting proficiency and allow you to focus on enjoying your fishing time.

Top-quality equipment featuring TFO and Winston Rods with Hatch and Ross reels can be provided if needed. It is not necessary to purchase equipment before a lesson.

Locations

I have a few carefully selected areas, which have historically been good locations; they include, Medway, Taunton, and Hopkinton.

These locations are generally convenient for most people; you can select the one that works for you.

UNLESS WE HAVE AN EXCEPTIONALLY WARM DAY,
