Desert Fly Casters Educational Actvities & Events
Throughout the year the club holds educational events for "members only" and for curious first timers.
![]() |
The Desert Fly Casters offers several educational opportunities for its
members including Casting lessons, stream side and lake side instruction, fly tying classes, and fly rod building.
Having attended all of these classes myself, I definitely have seen the benefits and highly recommend this to others. |
