About the class
We meet at 7:00 am (or earlier for the really enthusiastic fisherman) in Colorado Springs, and drive to our fishing site.
We will spend the day fishing the lakes and stream, and will enjoy a delicious, gourmet lunch, served streamside. Our day will end around 4:00 pm, and we will drive back to Colorado Springs, or you may choose to stay at the ranch, and practice what you’ve learned.
Upon completion of your trip, you will receive a complimentary book as a reference of what you learned.
Throughout the season, we offer men-only classes ( Stone Fly Fishing School), women-only classes ( Damsel Fly Fishing School), and family classes (Caddis Fly Fishing School).
Stone Fly and Damsel Fly Fishing Schools are a great way to learn the sport in a single sex environment.
Caddis Fly Fishing Schools are a great way to get the whole family to participate in a life-long, fun, family activity that could ultimately, lead you to great fishing spots around the world.
