2021 Women’s Flyfishing Trips
Women fishing is a fast-growing segment of the fishing population. In recent years, organizations catering to women fishing have grown, including companies that make gear specifically for women, and outfitters catering to women.
Women’s Flyfishing is one such organization. Owner Linda Leary explains some of the flyfishing courses and guided fishing trips aimed at women that they’ve got planned for 2021 in this video.
