Upcoming Courses with Red's University of Fly Fishing: New Fisheries / New Techniques

June Is Heating Up: Get on the Water with Red’s University

The next two weeks are packed with opportunities to get on the water, explore new techniques, and learn new fisheries with the Red’s Fly Shop team. You do not need to be enrolled in the University of Fly Fishing to jump into these classes. If you are looking to try Euro Nymphing, fish a tributary stream, improve your rowing, or simply spend time learning alongside an instructor, this is a great window to get plugged in.  

Classes are open to anglers both inside and outside the University program, and several dates are already filling or sold out. If you see a course that fits your schedule or targets a skill you want to build, we recommend jumping in early.
