Inshore Flyfishing with Lou Tabory

This is one of the best saltwater flyfishing schools on the east coast. Whether you are a beginner or an old salty pro, you are sure not to walk away from this class without increasing your knowledge of saltwater flyfishing.

Lou Tabory is the author of Inshore Flyfishing, Guide to Saltwater Baits & Imitations, and Stripers On The Fly. He is second to none when it comes to chasing striped bass along the coast.  During this class he will offer all of his knowledge to you.

DAY ONE: Lou is not only an expert fisherman, he is also a professional photographer. This will be evident during his slide presentations in which he will show you how to read the water, identify bait, present your fly, fight, land, and release fish. Another aspect of flyfishing in saltwater that Lou will teach is knots. He will show students how to tie the essential knots needed to fish for striped bass. If you are just after a few schoolies or trying to break an I.G.F.A. record, Lou will show you the knots and leader configurations you will need. Several times during the day students will adjourn to our casting area where Lou will instruct you on the techniques of flycasting, of which he is a master.

DAY TWO: The second day of this seminar will be spent on the water with Lou putting the previous day's theories to practice.

Spey Casting Class

With the popularity of spey casting on the rise we have decided to add a spey casting class to our list of seminars. Topher Browne has graciously agreed to teach this full day class for us. Topher is a FFF Master Certified Casting Instructor and is one of three casting experts featured in the instructional DVD, Spey to Z. He has fished for Atlantic salmon in all of the Canadian provinces where they are found as well as Iceland, Norway, and the Kola Peninsula in Russia. He writes for the Atlantic Salmon Journal and the Art of Angling Journal. Topher is considered to be the most knowledgeable and talented spey casting instructor in the Northeast and we excited to be able to offer a class taught by him.

Private Casting Instruction

Most fly fishermen never take a casting lesson when in reality we could better our casting greatly with just one lesson. If you are just learning to fly fish, a casting lesson will get you started on the right track before you've accumulated years of bad habits. One lesson can also save years of frustration and bad casting. If you've been fly casting for a long time but you just can't seem to increase your casting distance or you constantly get knots (wind knots are not caused by the wind) in your leader or maybe your fly always hits the water behind you, a one hour lesson could work wonders for your casting and fishing. You will not just learn how to cast, you will be shown the mechanics of fly casting and how and why it works. Our goal is to have you come away from your lesson with an improved casting stroke and the ability to diagnose mistakes that may arise in the future and correct them using the knowledge gained from that lesson.
