Idaho is home to some of the best fly-fishing opportunities in North America. Whether you want to sight-cast to rising trout in a crystal-clear alpine stream or feel the power of a Snake River smallmouth bass crushing a streamer, the Gem State has you covered!

If you’d like to learn how to fly-fish, here’s your chance! My next Tight Lines 208 fishing class, Learning to Fly, offers an entry-level overview of fly-fishing in Idaho waters. We will cover gear, flies, strategies, popular species, top locations and more, including hands-on, professional casting instruction.

Learning to Fly is set for Sept. 20 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn Boise Spectrum. This class often sells out quickly — register early to secure your spot! For more information or to sign up, visit www.tightlines208.com. I look forward to seeing you there. Tight lines!
