ROCKY MT. FLY FISHING RETREATS

A unique vacation experience, offering relaxation

balanced with learning adventures in the Rocky Mountains.

Catering to independent & solo travelers or small groups.

Women Only Fly Fishing

Beginners Lessons

Your teacher will instruct you in all the basics, like roll cast, pickup, lay down cast, false cast, shooting line. Take an ice tea break, and learn about the equipment, dry-fly action, equipment selection, knots, where the trout live, insects that trout feed on, fly selection, and more. Our guides will make sure that the excitement of fishing will override the schooling by the time you leave.

You will then go out on the river or pocket canyon or lake, depending on the area you choose, and try out your new skills. This includes possible lessons in the Rocky Mt. National Park.

Colorado Women Flyfishers

COLORADO WOMEN FLYFISHERS is a sociable organization for women who flyfish. The purpose of CWF is to fish, have fun and enjoy the camaraderie of other women who delight in the sport of flyfishing. While not intended primarily as a "learn to fish" club, CWF welcomes all ability levels, and offers a supportive environment wherein every member can improve her flyfishing knowledge and skills.

Meetings are held the first Tuesday of each month (except July & December) at Piccolo's Restaurant, 3563 S. Monaco Parkway, Denver. Social hour starts at 5:30, dinner (optional) is at 6:30, meeting and program at 7:30. Dues are $20/calendar year and entitle members to such benefits as monthly meetings and informative programs, frequent day and weekend (or longer) fishing trips, monthly newsletter, parties and social events, instructional clinics, fishin' buddy roster and lots more. Women in the Denver area are invited to visit the next meeting and join in the fun! "Tight lines, everyone!"
