At this years Crabfest I plan on giving a fly fishing clinic for those that want to learn about the sport and get in some fly casting instruction. I plan to bring out a bunch of rods, flies, and tying gear for everyone to see.  I will be doing some basic casting instruction for those that want to learn.  And for those that know how to cast I can help you improve your casting and get some into doing a double haul.

The clinic will be at my rv around 3:00, that will give everyone time to get out during the day for some crabbing and for those showing up on Saturday.  I will have a table set up, but if you can bring your own chair that would be great.  Not sure how long the clinic will be for, we can play it by ear.  If you can't make the clinic or want to talk to me at a different time, just find me and ask away.  I am out the point that I enjoy teaching others how to fly fish almost as much as I enjoy fly fishing myself.

I will be in spot #92, just look for the Fleetwood rv with a white NCKA flag flying out front.  During the day I will be walking the beach doing some surf fishing after I drop my traps for crab.  I plan to talk about what type of equipment I use for different species of fish.  I will talk about bass, trout, striper, bluegills and crappie, and cod fishing.  If there is anything in particular you would like me to talk about, just post here that way I can make sure I bring what is needed.  I also will be tying flies throughout the weekend as well as at the clinic if anyone wants me to.

I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with everyone.  See you at Crabfest.

FYI, I have a real problem remembering names, so when I can't remember your name do not take it personally.
So long and thanks for all the fish!!!

I'll see if I can find my box of surf perch flies, I don't have many as I've never had much luck for them but I'll bring an 8 wt and some sinking line.

Fly clinic is still happening for those that want to see how I fish.  I will start with the basics and quickly go through what most need to know.  This will be at 5:00 at my rv.  Just look for the BRONCO flag!!!

Saturday morning I will be fishing the surf looking for perch.  Probably fish for a couple hours before heading out to drop some traps for crabs around 11:00.  High tide is at 5:30 with low around noon.
So long and thanks for all the fish!!!
