Workshops

Workshops at the Gulf Coast Classic offer hands-on learning opportunities that can accelerate your learning, or teach new techniques or applications that will advance your fly tying, fly casting, or fly fishing skills. Our workshops are led by some of the top instructors, regionally and nationally. Some are free, others have a relatively low fee compared to commercial classes.

General: Before registering for any workshop, check the recommended skill level. Most classes require an additional fee beyond event registration. To insure quality instruction, class sizes are limited. Register early as classes often fill in advance. If a class is canceled, you will be notified in advance and receive a refund.

All workshops are 1.5 to 3 hours long.

Casting Classes: Some rods & reels are available for instructional use, but it’s preferred that you bring your own.

Fly Tying Classes: Bring your own lamp, vise, tools & tying thread. Some tools are available for beginning tying sessions. Materials will be provided. All classes are indoors.

Please read the descriptions below prior to registering, as a limited description is provided on the registration site.
