Spey Academy
July 7-8 & 14-15, August 11-12 & September 8-9, 2018
Spey casting is an art which allows anglers to enhance their fly fishing while achieving the ability to cast in tight quarters, change direction easily, cast larger flies, cast further and add an element of fun and dimension to their existing fly casting skills.
With 17 years of spey casting experience and now having taught thousands to spey cast, Andrew Moy is offering a 2 day spey casting academy on the banks of the Beaverkill River in upstate NY. This 2 day school will take you through the basics of spey casting, how to spey cast/fish and manage a spey rod and line. Whether you'd like to use this method of casting with a single or double handed rod for trout, steelhead, salmon, or saltwater, Andrew will be able to deliver the knowledge needed to obtain your goals.
The courses will be taught on the banks of the lower Beaverkill River at Tight Lines North. The property is on excellent trout water and has all of the amenities to make this a very comfortable, relaxing and rewarding experience for everyone.
