We consider ourselves very fortunate to have had instruction from such a qualified, professional and friendly team. The student to instructor ratio made this seminar great value for the money. The Fly Shop® team appeared to be effortless in their delivery; i.e. well prepared, confident and knowledgeable... these guys are very good and the program is perfect for anglers of all levels. The focus on casting is "spot on". Jeannine & Stan Hall

"Oh, I can't say enough about how wonderful it was. I totally enjoyed myself and learned a wealth of fly fishing skills and information. Very professional staff that made you feel very welcome." Carol Maddalena
"Was probably the best time with a group I had in years. I learned fly fishing and had a lot of fun along the way. It was perfect!" Judith Farber

No matter who I asked, no matter how poorly the question I asked came out - I got quality, patient answers and demonstrations every time. I cannot imagine a better learing environment and team." Geoff, Rodger, Scott, & Damon Groves
"You taught an 'old dog' a new trick. This was the most rewarding learning experience I had had in many years." Arnold Cleveland

"Terrific course! I made a lot of progress in those two days. this was easily one of the best father's day gifts I've ever given dad - he just raved about it."
"Very nice equipment - I was also given very good advice regarding future purchases."
"All in all an outstanding experience very complete and well rounded. Mel and Rachel are superb instructors. And on top of all the learning, it was fun!"
