Hey, does anyone know where I can take fly fishing lessons??

I think Tallahassee has a local fly shop, they might be able to help you...or look for a fly shop near by..maybe Apalachicola....

Chalk's right...check The Fly Shop in Tallahassee. I've seen them offer lessons several times. They are located on Thomasville Rd. If you're coming from the I-10 intersection on Thomasville Rd. and heading towards town, it will be a couple of miles down on the right.

Why take lessons- get yourself a good book on the subject, then get out in the backyard and do what it says. Believe me, you will wrap the line around your head a few time, but in no time you will be doing it like a pro.
Here's a book recommend by several people who bought it.

"The Complete Idiot's Guide to Fly Fishing"
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/ ... ct-details

It's amazing what you can teach yourself, if you try.
Good Luck

Thanks goutrage I will try that probally a lot cheaper and more helpful.

NOTE, practice with the hook cliped or removed

OH yeah you are so right I have had lots of hooks attak me before ( haha)
Thanks much appreciated

If you are learning how to fly fish I highly recommend asking someone to help teach you. It took a long time to correct 35 years of bad habits when I finally did take an "improvement class". Ask Mike at the Flyshop Tallahassee when the next class will be taught or call Jim Penrod. Jim is a certified casting instructor and currently the only one currently in town who has taken the Master Casting Instructor tests. Jim often teaches for the Flyshop. Have fun

Well I have had one private lesson and I think I will still go out and buy that book. Thanks for everyones help. Terri
