Nymph Workshop
Northern California Waters - Putah Creek, CA
We are proud to offer workshops to help our guests hone their angling skills with hands-on and on-the-water training in a friendly atmosphere.
Our workshops are like a fly-fishing mini-camp. Each student will enjoy personalized instruction to reinforce fundamental fly fishing skills and expand your angling knowledge.
These workshops include instruction on rigging and presentation, in a hands-on experience on the water.
Nymph Workshop
In the “Nymph Workshop,” we concentrate on two different types of nymphing: tight line and dead drift. All we do in this workshop is nymphing—hands-on and in the water.
The course is set around nymphing rods, lines, and rigging. A large part of this workshop is hands-on: rigging and fishing. We instruct the student on the types of setups and how to pick the proper setup for the fishing situation.
We focus on reading water and wading into the proper casting position. You cannot make a dead drift with a nymph if you can't read the water. Both tight line and dead drift are equally effective— but both have their place in your fly-fishing tactics tool bag.

“We frequently use Lance Gray & Company guide services for fishing club outings and presentations. We also call on Lance for disabled veteran group outings. I’ve been in his boat fishing, too. WOWZA! Lance is a perfect blend of expertise, coaching and mentoring, fishing success, and wonderful humor. Time with Lance is well worth it! ”
