Join Virginia Outside for a week of exploring the ins and outs of fly-fishing. This camp is a combination of classroom and on-the-water experience during which campers will learn the basics of fly-fishing from the cast to the knots to the flies to the fish. Campers will complete the requirements of the Boy Scouts fly-fishing merit badge through this program as well, including the ultimate – catching fish on their own hand-tied flies. Campers should come away from the week as self-sufficient flyrodders. No fly-fishing experience necessary! Virginia Outside provides all bait and tackle, rods and reels and life jackets. For a detailed description of weekly activities, you can visit www.virginiaoutside.com.
Pickup and drop-off for this camp will be at Luck Hall, located on the Collegiate Lower School campus.
