Sheila M. Hassan FFI Master Certified Casting Instructor
Sheila is a Fly Fishers International (FFI) Master Casting Instructor (one of less than 250 in the world) and teaches fly casting throughout New England. She is the chief instructor / program director at the Wulff School of Fly Fishing in the Catskills and a member of the TFO Rods, R.L. Winston Rods, and Hatch Reels Pro Staff.
She has traveled extensively catching (and releasing) everything from bluegill to blue marlin, and she holds an IGFA Women's Fly-Rod World Record for both Bonefish and Bluefish. Sheila performed a number of the fly casting sequences in George Roberts's book, Master the Cast: Fly Casting in Seven Lessons.
She has published her own book, Fly Casting: A Systematic Approach. Her second book, "Starting in the Salt: Saltwater FlyCasting," is now available.
When she is not casting or fly-fishing, she works as a Nurse Practitioner in Boston. She teaches because she loves to share this sport with others.
