About
BIPOC Mountain Collective – Fly Fishing 201: Eleven Mile Canyon
Take your fly fishing skills to the next level with BIPOC Mountain Collective at one of Colorado’s most iconic trout fisheries—Eleven Mile Canyon.
Our Fly Fishing 201 class is designed for anglers who already have a basic understanding of fly fishing and want to build confidence on moving water. Throughout the day, participants will focus on reading water, improving casting accuracy, selecting flies, rigging techniques, presentation, and landing fish in a variety of river conditions.
This is a hands-on learning experience where you’ll receive instruction while fishing alongside an experienced angler in a supportive, community-focused environment.
