Fly Casting and Fly Tying Instruction 

Tight Lines offers both fly casting and fly tying instruction.  We teach both standard single hand and spey casting.  We can also teach single handed spey casting for those wishing to learn techniques for casting in tight quarters, especially on our tight rivers here in NJ.  Our casting classes are generally held privately by appointment, however we periodically hold group classes throughout the year in both single hand and spey.  For pricing and a schedule of our group classes please see the tables below.  If you would like to set up a private lesson, please contact us at 973 244 5990 or info@tightlinesflyfishing.com.   

If you are interested in spey casting, there's no need to look anywhere else.  Whether you are new to the two-handed game or have some experience under your belt, shop owner Andrew Moy can help.  To date, Andrew has taught over 1000 anglers both basic and advanced techniques and has demonstrated for numerous fly fishing groups and organizations.  A lesson or two will demystify the art of spey casting and you'll be on the water on your own in no time.
