Registration is not Required
Payment In Full In Advance Only
This class is no cost to members.

All events will be at the Enterprise Park on the northernmost sports field. You access it by turning in the first driveway at the northern end of the park which leads to a separate parking lot. You will see us on the field. The dates and times are shown below. To sign up for the Foundational Clinics please email Charlie Harper a clharper4fishing@gmail.com.

Registration is limited to 12 students per clinic. Bring your rod, preferably a 5 or 6 weight, and we will set you up with an appropriate leader and yarn fly. If you don’t have a rod yet, let Charlie know and we will have a loaner available for you to use. Also, bring a chair, water and snacks. We will break for an hour for lunch. These Clinics are 1 1/2 consecutive days each. If you are retired or don’t work on week-days please try first to sign up for the Thursday / Friday Clinic in May. Let’s save spots on the Saturday / Sunday clinic in April for those who work during the week. Please only sign up if you are able to attend both days of the clinic.

The Skills Development Assessment Days are also at no cost and are not designed as teaching clinics. Jim and I will set up the applicable Bronze. Silver or Gold courses and give you a chance to test your proficiency performing the various skills. With the Bronze an Silver levels, we will check you off on each of the skills you perform successfully that day and you can come back on another day and perform the others to complete that level. For the Gold level skills level you must perform them all successfully on the same day. Here is a link to the FFI web site describing all of the skills required at each level.
