Learn Locally
Build confidence on any water through practical, hands-on instruction.
Learn skills you can apply on your next fishing trip!
Whether you are picking up a fly rod for the very first time or refining years of experience, our local classes focus on practical skills that transfer directly to the river, because learning should make you a better angler, not just a good student. Local casting instruction is available through Northern Colorado Recreation Centers or by request at your preferred location.
Additional workshops, cover fly-tying, the Freestone Shuffle NSSM and FLOW/CAST methodologies, reading water, and seasonal topics throughout the year both in person and online.
Our goal isn’t simply to teach fly fishing. It’s to help you become a more confident angler every time you step into the water.
Travel
The best classroom has moving water. It’s time to put those new skills to work.
Nothing builds confidence like demonstrating to yourself that what you’ve learned works.
Take what you’ve learned beyond your home waters. Join us on destination fishing trips that combine exceptional fisheries, unforgettable places, and the confidence to fish new water.
Expeditions
Guided Overland Journeys
Overland journeys combine the freedom of self-supported travel with the confidence of having an experienced expedition leader. Bring your own properly equipped vehicle, equipment, and camping gear then let Freestone Shuffle handle the route planning, fishing knowledge, local expertise, and daily guidance while you enjoy the journey.
Travel farther. Fish better. Wake up somewhere new.
