Pontoon Workshop
Pontoon Workshop
The “Pontoon Workshop” teaches fly anglers how to drift down rivers for greater access while fly-fishing safely. As always, we go above and beyond with the workshop curriculum.
The workshop covers water safety, reading water and route options, recognizing water hazards, forward and back rowing, pivoting, ferrying, and recommended equipment plus upgrades. The Pontoon Workshop ensures plenty of “on the water” learning time to give our students the confidence needed for a safe and enjoyable drift down the river for future trips.
The Feather River is our venue for the workshop, which is nearly perfect for pontoon boat applications. We float the river from the Riverbend Parks to the Oroville Afterbay Outlet Boat ramp, coaching each student on proper watercraft skills. Students gain the needed skill set and progression in their rowing skills to become more comfortable with their craft and overcome challenges while being assisted by seasoned oarsmen. During the second half of the float, participants will have the opportunity to fish select runs and learn even more about the techniques and tactics of fly fishing on the Feather River. If you're looking to explore the journey of learning to drift moving water, this is the workshop for you.
All students must wear a PFD and Wading Belt to participate.
The workshop is held on the Feather River, CA.
