Fly Fishing Swap Meet and Clinic - May 12, 2012
Are you interested in fly fishing and have questions about the equipment and techniques? How to use it? What’s needed to get started? Want to try fly casting?
California Fly Fishers Unlimited and Fulton-El Camino Parks District invite you to join us for a day of fly fishing instruction and fun. This event is open to beginning fly fishers, or experienced. There will also be events for the kids – fish games and face painting. There is no charge for the event.
Classes will be available for fly fishing basics, fly casting instruction, fly tying, fishing knots, and water safety. Beginning fly tiers will learn to tie a “woolly bugger” fly that can be used for a wide variety of fish.
May 12, 2012, Saturday
