Heather has dedicated her time to educate and inspire others.  Heather is currently studying for her Casting Instructor Certification with Fly Fishers International and has been teaching Fly Fishing since 2014.  Heather has been mentored by the best anglers and fly casters in the world.  This allows Heather to pass on the knowledge she’s learned to her students.  With nearly 130+ days on the water each year and fishing around the world, Heather continues to invest into herself to mentor anglers to be the best that they can be.

The core of fly fishing is fly casting.  75% of fishing is the presentation.  In order to present the fly properly an angler must have an understanding of The Principles of Fly Casting.  To become a successful fly caster you must apply the Three “P”s; Practice, Patience and Persistence.
