Casting Skills Challenge, Help with Casting or Socialize
Join Heather Hodson and Jen Ripple of Dun Magazine for a low-key, fun and non-intimidating evening of casting and community, in conjunction with the New Orleans Fly Fishers club and the FFI Casting Skills Challenge program. Or just come socialize and hang out.
SweetWater Brewing Company is providing the adult beverages that will be kept cold by YETI. This is a plastic free event so we ask that you bring a reusable water bottle and we’ll provide the ice cold water.
We’re happy to show off the fun FFI Bronze Casting Challenge at these events. For those interested, we’ll run through and practice the obstacles. For FFI members, we have qualified observers to complete the challenge certification. For non FFI members, we’ll have applications for those wishing to join. There is -no- obligation to join FFI unless you wish to receive the certificate and pin.
Hosted by Rip and Hopper’s Adventure, Fly Fishers International, Sweetwater Brewing Company, United Women on the Fly, Dun Magazine, and Heather Hodson (Northwest Fly Girl)
Details on the Challenge can be found at the FFI website Casting Skills Challenge Page.
