A guide or Turning Stones team member will reach out to confirm trip details prior to your excursion. Thank you for your flexibility and understanding as we work to provide you with an exceptional fly fishing adventure. Fly casting is a very important part of fly fishing. As you know, casting a fly rod can be a difficult venture without proper instruction! We offer casting lessons from two highly respected fly casters in the southeast. Gordon Vanderpool, the owner, is a (CCI) Certified Casting Instructor, and Paul Bourcq holds the title of an (MCI) Master Casting Instructor for the Federation of Fly Fishers. As you can see, Gordon and Paul make up the most experienced fly casters among guides in the Southeast!! Typical beginner lessons will include the roll cast, which is probably the most important cast you will ever learn for fly fishing these mountain streams. Then, we will work on the basic false cast, which is the back and forth motion most people see on TV. If you’re an advanced caster and need some tuning up, you’ve come to the right place! We at Turning Stone’s Fly Fishing have an eye for spotting most problems when it comes to the fly cast. Our goal is for you to walk away from the lesson better than when you arrived. Call us to arrange your casting lesson! Prices are at the rate of $40/hour. Let us fix that nagging tailing loop today!
