Fly
Fishing and Entomology
Perfect for those who are just getting started or for
those who want to get more out of the sport. The objective here is to
properly introduce students to the world of flyfishing as it pertains to
British Columbia so that the students will quickly learn the basics that
are essential to becoming a successful flyfisher. We will be covering a
wide range of topics such as proper tackle selection, trout physiology,
physical and chemical characteristics of lakes and rivers as well as
entomology coupled with proper fly selection. The course will be
followed with an optional Sunday Fishout at a Merritt area lake. It
should be emphasized that this is not a flycasting or flytying course,
although certain aspects of each will be touched on.
Scheduling and Requirements
This 4 week evening lecture course is available in February through May.
There will be handouts to compliment the lectures and the students
should bring along pen and paper for note-keeping. Class size is limited
to a maximum of fifteen. Students are expected to provide their own gear
