WNY Fly Fishing Trout Camps

Trout Camps are in the spring for inland trout. The classes are six hours and cover casting, fly selection, and reading the water. We provide lunch, guides, flies/leaders/tippet, rods and reels if needed, you must bring waders and wading boots, sunglasses. This is the best way to start out fly fishing and learn from some of the best instructors in WNY.

Wny Fly Fishing Report 7/27/09

Trico's have started and golden stones are going strong with bwo's also in the mix. Its time to start using ants, beetles and hoppers (dont forget to put a dropper behind the hopper).

Wny Fly Fishing Report 7/26/09

There is no updating needed as the weather continues to plague us with lots of rain, which is good for our cold water friends, but lousy for us fisherman.

Wny Fly Fishing Report 7/18/09

I met Paul and Jeff on the upper catt, to do some poking around. The water above elton was flowing cool and clear, the section after elton had a slight stain and color to it. We fished for about 6 hours getting most of the fish on hare's ears and spring creek specials (aka olive bugger).

The creeks are coming down and we should be back in business right away. Golden stones, cahills, and with the cooler weather BWO's, caddis are still around in good numbers.
