Fly-Cast Seminars

STS Guiding Service has been teaching fly casting for 9 years now. We offer a unique style of teaching that has come together from a variety of instructing styles. Not only do we teach you how to cast but we show you how to teach yourself. The mechanics of casting must be understood in order to cast a line consistently and improve your distance and loops once the class is over and your on your own.

The two key elements of casting are loop control, line speed. If you understand both you are well on your way to casting a fly line with style and confidence. Distance comes quickly once you know how to create line speed. Loop control is simple once you understand the mechanics of the rod, line and angler.

Our group fly casting seminars are usually taught in the Spring although we can teach your private group, club or school anytime of the year. The fly casting seminar is a 3 day seminar, during the 3 day seminar we will spend the first 2 days in a park teaching you how to cast a line, each day is 2 hours of instruction, the 3rd day is a " On the River Fishout" where you will be able to try out your casting while fishing for Cutthroat trout. We will take you out fishing on our river jet boats for an exciting day of river fly fishing. This entire seminar will be held in 3 consecutive weekends. (See below for available dates).
