The purpose of this post is to let people know about a new service that we have added to our Family-Youth Fishing Programs. The new program is conventional fishing, or as many say, "spin fishing or worm-n-bobber fishing." You might wonder why a fly-fishing guide and fly-casting instructor would offer such a program? Well, I believe in the following:
For many kids, and even for adults, fly-fishing is a challenging sport
to learn -- it's not something you can learn in one day. So, why not start with conventional fishing (i.e. worm-bobber & lure). Here's how it works and our goals:
NOTE: To all concerned parents; to be a licensed guide and certified instructor, a state and national criminal background check has been performed. Parents or guardians must be present at all times.
As a young boy, fishing was a very positive experience for me. As an adult, fishing continues to be a positive force in my life -- I can't imagine my life without the opportunity to be outside, on a river. With that in mind, I offer this program because I want kids to have the same opportunities that I had. To be clear, and based on the donation only payment system, money and profit are not my goals -- being an educational resource for my community is.
Please feel to pass this information onto as many parents as possible, and let's get ready to go fishing!

- Pay if forward by giving my time and expertise to my fishing community.
- Provide a memorable outdoor experience for boys and girls.
- Supporting families interested in cost effective, outdoor educational experiences.
- Lastly, fly-fishing can be very challenging and frustrating -- for a first time positive fishing experience, sometimes the right thing to do is to teach basic-conventional fishing skills.
