Fly Casting Basics - 101

Want to learn how to fly cast? Join the Pequest Natural Resource Education Center staff for Fly Casting Basics - 101. We will go over fly rod rigging and anatomy, and how to cast the basic 4-part cast. We will be casting on grass, so no fishing license is required. Equipment will be provided, or you can bring your own, we just ask, no flies.

Age Limits

For ages 12 years and above. Participants 16 years and younger must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult.

Prerequisites

Participants should be comfortable outdoors in changing weather conditions.
