2006 Women in Waders

Our Women in Waders program is designed to encourage more women to take up the sport of fly fishing.  This is a two part program:
-one evening of introduction to the gear and materials as well as some casting instruction
-a half day of guided fly fishing on the New Haven River with an experienced angler from the NHRAA and a wrap up lunch at the Dog Team Tavern.

The program is free and open to anyone. 
Look for more information as we get closer to fishing season.
