We get it! We understand that as women, you wear many hats and have various responsibilities that compete for your time. For many of you, carving out a little "me" time just wouldn't happen if it wasn't for that gift certificate you were given for your Birthday or that friend who keeps nagging you about taking a class with her!
That's why at Angler's Covey we want to do whatever we can to make it easier for you to discover, explore and progress in your fly fishing. We have many options to make learning how to fly fish work into your schedule:
If a co-ed learning environment works for you, you can get a taste of fly fishing by attending one of our Orvis 101 classes. They are a brief overview of what fly fishing is all about. These are only an hour long, are offered weekly throughout the summer, and are FREE!
For a more in-depth beginner's class, our co-ed Discover Fly Fishing class is a good option - offered frequently, lasts for 3 hours and costs $30.
You can follow either of these with the Orvis 201 class, $60, which gives you a taste of fishing on-stream.
For more information and to register for a co-ed option, see our Getting Started page HERE.
If you prefer to learn in an environment where your instructors and the other students are women, then our "For Women Only" options are for you!
Our "For Women Only" Discover Fly Fishing Class is offered May and June, for $30. This is a great chance to grab your friend, sign up, and take the plunge! The class is held at Angler's Covey in the evening for 3 hours, is taught by a woman fly fishing instructor, covers all the basics and includes a casting demonstration on our pond.
Note: If we have enough interest, we are happy to add a Women's only option for July or August!

Whether you’re just getting started or need to brush up on a few skills, our Women’s Camp is a fun, non-threatening place to do it! Students benefit from the diverse experiences and approaches of our instructors while learning about equipment, fly selection, knot tying, safety, casting, catch and release, reading the water, fish habits and much more! Our 3-part camp consists of two evening sessions and one on-stream session, which includes a streamside lunch. Two camps are scheduled each summer.
This is a 3 day event. Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday
Days 1 & 2 are 6-9pm in class, day 3 is 7am-1pm on the river
Cost is $195.00 per person
*This camp is designed to help you become independent on the water, so you will need to provide your own equipment. Rentals are available at 50% off.*
"Becky and Sharon presented a great women's class. The informative and interesting classroom sessions left me feeling ready to get on the river. Our day at 11 mile canyon was amazing! Sharon made the right call to change my fly and I landed a beautiful Rainbow. After this class, I feel confident and ready to head out on my own. And if the class wasn't great enough on it's own, the chicken salad Becky made for lunch (yes, catered lunch included!) was great."
