Rob Woodruff Class and Lab Schedule
Rob Woodruff, forwarded me this information. If you are newer to fly fishing and want to begin moving to the next level, these classes offered by Rob Woodruff and Steve Hollensed will help take you there. Rob said he will be rolling out a new website sometime soon, so we have that to look forward to this year as well.
BASS LAB
This informative class examines Ichthyology, Limnology, Physics, Meteorology and other sciences from a fly fishing point of view. The Black Bass (Micropterus spp.) and Striper/White Bass (Morone spp.) families will be covered.
The objective of the class is to teach fly fishers to know their target species, to analyze the natural variables presented during a typical day on the water and to adjust fly selection, presentation and tactics in order to maximize success.
Orvis, Dallas
February 9: 9am to 5pm
Tuition- $175.00, Registration deadline Feb. 1.

Entomology for Fly Fishers- 3 spaces remaining
A course designed for all fly fishermen, gives an overview of the invertebrates, both aquatic and terrestrial, that are of importance to the fly angler. Warm-water and cold-water environments are included. Topics covered include sampling techniques, identification of both larval and adult stages and simple biology of the species. The ultimate goal of the class is for the angler to develop the ability to equate in-the-field observation to fly selection and construction in order to achieve success.
