Fly
Fishing Academy for Women
Offered
by Quille Farnham
I'd
like to invite you on a great learning adventure.
Over the past several years, I've been approached
countless times by women who have expressed interest
in starting in the sport of fly fishing or improving
on their fly fishing skills. They want a course that
is a "women only" experience.
I
am blessed to be able to guide in the Cariboo Region
of British Columbia, Canada, in one of the most beautiful
places on earth, and I would like to share this experience
with you. The BC Trout are plentiful and often large.
We will be fishing on and around Quesnel Lake with
300+ miles of shoreline, numerous feeder creeks, rivers
and abundant wildlife with few or no other people
present. Imagine a classroom such as this! I would
be honored to have you join me at the Rainbow Waters
Women's Fly Fishing Academy.
