Orvis Fly Fishing 101
Sponsored by Orvis and Trout Unlimited
Orvis and Trout Unlimited are partnering to offer a new industry event to introduce new fly fishers to the sport of fly fishing – Fly Fishing 101. Never before has there been such an organized effort across so many locations to give new fly fishers a chance to learn the great sport of fly fishing free of cost.
Every Saturday in July 2010 from 9AM-12PM, the Hunter Mountain Sports and Expedition Center will offer free half-hour fly casting classes and free half-hour classes on rigging a fly rod and reel outfit. Upon completion of the courses, every participant will receive a $15 Orvis savings card and a certificate for a free membership to Trout Unlimited - a $35 value. Volunteers from Trout Unlimited will be on hand at select locations to aid with the instruction.
All ages and beginning skill levels are welcome to attend the Fly Fishing 101 event. Space is limited each day, so make your reservation soon by calling the Hunter Mountain Sports and Expedition Center at 518 263-4666 during normal shop business hours (Thursday thru Monday, 9am-4pm).
