Colorado Beginner Fly Fishing Class | Estes Park.
All of our Estes Park Beginner Fly Fishing Classes are conducted on the water here in beautiful Colorado. With special use permits, Liarflies can offer our Beginner Anglers’ Classes on the Big Thompson River Below Lake Estes and in the Rocky Mountain National Park. All Liarflies fly-fishing instructors are Colorado-certified teachers. Learning to cast a fly rod on the water allows our students to get a feel for the nuances that can not be experienced on in a classroom or on grass at a park.
This Colorado Beginner Fly Fishing Class is for anyone who has ever wanted to learn how to fly fish. It also provides a great learning opportunity for experienced anglers who might be struggling with techniques and catch rates.
A Colorado Fishing License is required for all of our on-the-water classes. The class includes 6 hours of on-the-water fly fishing instruction and lunch. Waders, boots, rod, reel, line, tippit and flies are all included as well! If you have your own gear, please bring it. Nothing is better than learning with your own equipment. Please join us for this fun and relaxed angler’s class.
