Tricos
4 New Gallery School Dates (Trico Gallery School)
July: Friday, July 24th and Monday, July 27th
August: Monday, August 3rd and Sunday, August 9th
These 4 dates have now come available to fish the early morning Trico hatch. Learn the tactics involved in fishing this tiny mayfly and see how easy/difficult/rewarding it can be to fish during hatch conditions to our ultra-selective spring creek trout. Due to the nature of this hatch these classes are for those who can get out of bed and be on the stream early in the morning. I mean real early. This hatch is temperature dependent and start time will vary from sunrise to 9 am. In order to catch the trout you will have to rise at the same time they do, as well as choose the right pattern and present the fly correctly. This will all become crystal clear when we spend our day on the water. Limit: 2 anglers per school. Cost:$60.00/angler
Individual Lessons and Classes
As always, casting and tying can be taught on an individual basis. Need a tune up before the big fishing trip? Want to learn how to tie flies but the class times don’t fit your schedule? Never hesitate to set up an individual lesson. One on one learning is often the best way to cut down the learning curve and enable you to improve your skills faster. Cost:$40.00/hr
Fly Tying Classes:
Now is the time when I begin to set up my locations for winter tying classes. Drop me a line if there is a location where you would like to see classes held. I will do my best to get close.

I was lucky enough to have Andy for a full day guide earlier this season. Rarely do you meet a person that is both a expert and a great teacher. You usually have one or the other. Andy is both.
Since my private lesson, my enjoyment of fly fishing has grown tremendously.
If you are considering a lesson, take advantage of Andy’s proposal. Or, if you have a friend or loved one, refer them to one of these classes. You’ll have a better fishing partner and they will be ever so grateful to learn from a pro.
You should do it now. Guys like me like to book Andy’s time. Luckily I get him for a 1/2 day next week to unravel the challenge and joys of Tricos.
Thank you, John, for your support. Andy is a little humble and would probably have kept your testimonial private, so I approved your comment to the blog.
I concur with John! 🙂
I wanted to share that I fished the Kinni on Wednesday and got there early to fish the Trico hatch. As Andy said the trout were taking the Trico’s spinners just under the surface. My strikes came when I was fishing my fly back (after the drift).
By 9am the Trico hatch was all but over and despite my best efforts with some terrestrials against the grassy banks no fish came to my flies. The additional fish I did catch came only by way of nymphing. By high noon the sun was bright and the fishing shut off. I then reprioritized and moved to just enjoying the sound and sights of the stream. 🙂
