2024 - 2025 RRFF Winter Fly Casting ClinicsOn Saturday, November 15th, our Russian River Fly Fishers Winter Fly Casting Instruction will begin at the RRFF Casting Pond in Dan Galvin Park.
Our RRFF Winter Fly Casting Clinics are held on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month, from noon until 2:30 PM (weather permitting). Our last Winter Clinic will be held on Saturday, March 7th, after which the Thursday evening fly casting will resume on March 12th (with Daylight Savings Time). The RRFF casting instruction program follows the casting levels established by Fly Fishers International (FFI). These include the Fly Casting Skills Development (FCSD) program and the Casting Instructors (CI) program. We also utilize the fly casting skill levels practiced by the Golden Gate Angling and Casting Club.
RRFF Fly Casting Clinics – Our fly casting clinics are FREE and are OPEN TO THE PUBLIC! Beginners are always welcome and encouraged to participate.
Our volunteer casting instructors are active fly fisherman who can help you with your fly casting fundamentals while also answering your questions regarding fly fishing and equipment. We can analyze your technique, offer pointers, and teach you new fly casting skills. However, the most important part of learning to fly cast is practice! It is said that 95% of becoming proficient with fly casting is based on the amount of time you devote to casting a fly line. To this end, the RRFF Casting Pond is open 7 days per week during the regular Dan Galvin Park hours of operation. Please…NO HOOKS at the Casting Pond (tie a piece of yarn to your leader instead!)
Fly fishing is a wonderful way to experience those incredible ecosystems that support fish! Its practice can offer us the opportunity to “stop the world” that we experience in our day to day actions while we reconnect with our environment and the larger natural world. It can be a balm for your soul and a gateway into a greater appreciation of the unity of all things. As is always the case, we choose just how far we immerse ourselves into it, and we determine how it will influence our perception.
Our Sonoma County winter afternoons can be truly spectacular! What better way to enjoy them, learn new skills and to meet new friends?
Won’t you join us at the Casting Pond?
