We'll have you casting both light and heavy-weight fly rods, hooking, playing, landing and releasing fish, tying knots and constructing leaders, wading safely, and much, much more. We'll fish for pink and chum salmon as well as Dolly Varden char and cutthroat trout.

Trip cost is $2,250. Price includes the complete school, all the gear, equipment and flies, four nights lodging (double occupancy), all the fantastic meals, four days guided fishing including one fly-out fishing day into glacier-studded Prince William Sound.

Flyfishing school salmon. The 2007 the Women's Flyfishing® fly fishing school was held at Orca Adventure Lodge in Cordova Alaska. The 2008 school is also scheduled for Orca July 26-30, 2008. See the 2008 trips brochure.

Whether you are a neophyte or a more experienced fly fisher, the schools will enable you to master equipment and techniques that are useful for all species of fish, no matter where you wet a line. You'll learn about and use both heavy and light weight fly rods, reels, and lines for salmon, rainbow trout, dolly varden char, and arctic grayling. We'll teach you knot tying, leader construction, wading, and, of course, casting, and best of all, that will happen on-the-water. You actually fish in our schools, and catch! In fact, the lodge will freeze your salmon for you to take home!

The schools are four days and three nights in length. The cost of the course covers everything: all your meals and lodging, the complete school, rods, reels, lines, and flies, as well as waders and boots, if you need them, and the use of the Lodge's boats and guides. All you need to bring is your raincoat.

The seven women in each school enjoy the instruction and guidance of two women instructors, so there's lots of personal attention. The absolutely outstanding meals are served family style in the main lodge and the lodge is completely modern and comfortable - especially inviting after a long day on the river!
