InstructorsSalmon and Trout Association: Beginners Courses Beginner Courses We are all concerned about the increasing age profile in our sport and so education is a high priority with the S&TA, particularly with bringing the youth into our sport. Branch and clubs organise local tuition days and the annual programme has been a tremendous success with over 100 courses nationwide, bringing thousands of newcomers into the sport. The courses are generally run on small still waters and last for the day. Participants are supervised by qualified, licensed instructors who take them through the basics of fly fishing including: safety, conservation, casting, knots and entomology. The majority of our courses specifically cater for juniors although we do offer a limited number of adult beginner days. Alternatively you could use a qualified instructor to make those first steps. The scheme has attracted sponsorship from water companies, tackle manufacturers and sports groups. This year we would like to thank the following, without whose support, we would be unable to run the courses with a minimal cost to the participants: Courses / Articles  Junior Course List 2008S&TA Autumn 2006 Gamefisher - Junior member Phil Ellis opinion pieceS&TA Autumn 2006 Gamefisher - Katie and Emma Thorpe's Junior Days |
