Competition training
One day · Up to 4 anglers · Permits and lunch included
Training for fly anglers who compete or want to start, and for teams. I have competed in fly fishing for more than ten years, with international and national awards.
In a competition you do not choose your water. A draw gives you a short stretch of river, called a beat, and a session of a few hours. That is where the three parts of this training start.
We also work on when to choose which tactic: a dry fly, one nymph or two, or a dry-dropper. The training covers what you want to work on. The nymph, river by river, is in euro nymphing in Montenegro. The rules behind the rigging, with their article numbers, are in the FIPS-Mouche rules explained, and the leader in numbers is in leader, sighter and tippet length.
Training is a kind of guiding, so you ask for it like any trip. In the request form, pick “Competition training” as the kind of trip. Under experience, the form has a line for anglers who fish in competitions. Use the message to tell me what you want to work on, and which water you have in mind.
I arrange the permits for the water we use. You can add rental gear to the training, modern competition rods and reels among it, and photos. More about me and competition fly fishing is on About Aleksandar.
The three parts
- Approach
- How to approach the water, what to cover first and how to read it.
- Rigging
- Tactical dry-fly rigging by FIPS-Mouche rules, leaders for euro nymphing and for dry flies, and rods.
- Simulations
- Practice sessions fished against the clock, as in a competition.
