LITTLE BUGS – Youth Beginner Fly Fishing Class. Designed for parents, grandparents or everything in between to share their passion for fly fishing with the younger generation. All ages welcome.
Little Bugs is brought to you by Crazy Rainbow Fly Fishing and the Ugly Bug Fly Shop. During this class we hope to inspire the younger generation to pursue a passion for the outdoors through fly fishing. Parents, grandparents or everything in between will accompany their little bugs on a multiday fly fishing class. Focusing on casting technique, fish handling, fly tying, and entomology.
Day one we will spend the evening at the Ugly Bug Fly Shop to focus on tying beginner pattens used on the North Platte River. Highlighting the fundamentals of fly tying, your little bugs will learn the behind the scenes of fishing. Finally, diving into the lifecycle of bugs through the entomology portion, they will have a better understanding of the fish food in our river.
The next evening we will head to the park to focus on casting technique and fighting a fish to the net. Whether they’ve casted before, or this is a first, we’ll be there along side all of your little bugs to teach as they go. Once they have their cast dialed in, we will head back to the fly shop for fishing handling. We find this to be one of the most important parts of our course. Focusing on the conservation of our fishy friends.
The final day is where the magic really happens in the form of a guided trip. Where the two of you get to spend the whole day making memories on the water with one of our professional guides. Enjoy beautiful scenery and put your skills to the test on the North Platte River. With a guide to coach you and your little bug every step of the way, you’ll be putting fish to the net in no time. These moments are what we hopes inspires these little bugs to fall in love with the outdoors and fly fishing. The patience of our guides, along with their knowledge of the area, are the perfect recipe for an enjoyable day of fishing.
