Floyd Spark and I are putting on a FREE seminar on “Offshore Fly-fishing for Private Boaters” at Bluewater Tackle in Solana Beach on July 31. It’s basically meant for experienced offshore private boat fishermen who are interested in fly-fishing for tuna, yellowtail & dorado, but need a little help getting started.

We’ve got a morning session from 10:00 – noon covering basic fly-fishing. This includes a 1.5 hour casting lesson by Capt. John Hendrickson from the San Diego Fly Shop, and we’ve got plenty of demo saltwater fly rods provided by Temple Fork Outfitters, so students don’t have to bring their own gear.

In the afternoon session from 1:00 – 3:00p, we’ll have a little classroom time, but the bulk of the afternoon will be a round table/whiteboard talk lead by Floyd Sparks going over equipment rigging and tactics for typical offshore situations (fly-fishing after a jig strike, fly-fishing kelp paddies, porpoise and birds, etc.).

OK, we now have the 2nd place prizes nailed down: Mangrove Products Hip-Shooters (with regular and boat bottoms), and both sizes of the Mangrove Knuckleheads reel handle cushions.
