2006 - June 2 or 3 Single Day Classes On The Skykomish River

Not just another school: After spending the last twenty years, as a Fisheries Biologist and Flyfishing Guide, Dennis is offering an innovative approach to flyfishing steelhead. This is what Mike Luce had the say about his Skykomish class.

Consider:

Each class of anglers will float the Skykomish River from the town of Sultan to Monroe. Students will learn the key elements of defining a flyfishing steelhead pool. Members will learn the "Sweet water", as you will stop at each holding pool along the way. Dennis will point out the waters that have consistently held fish year in and year out, how to recognize a new piece of water and how to tell when the river has changed your best pool, into a waste of time. Learn steelhead migratory patterns, including what constitutes a "High Water Lie" and how to catch steelhead when the shops are telling everyone the river is out!

Anglers will take turns on the four pontoon rafts provided, as you develop the simple skills of the boat, which has revolutionized the market.

Dennis will show you his highly effective flyline system, while you learn not only, what flylines to fish, but how to fish his "Grease line Steelhead Swing". Nobody disagrees with the fact that Dennis’ methods catch fish!

Students can fine tune or learn the skills of the "Six Gun Approach to Flycasting". Remember, Dennis has made his living putting first time anglers into steelhead.

Anglers will learn three simple knots that cover everything from replacing a tippet to constructing a steelhead leader.

Dennis will demonstrate the fly tying of two of his deadliest winter steelheading patterns, Black Bart and the Cop Car. How to buy or build a fly that swims with the action to catch steelhead.

One day class: approximately 8 to 10 hours on the water.
