Linecasters Beginners Academy ...

Linecasters hosts two BEGINNERS ACADEMIES per annum.  The first is in October and the second in December.  The academy is held in RHODES over a period of one day.  The Beginners Academy will practically and theoretically teach the fly fishing novice all they will need to know to confidently venture on to rivers with a fly rod to target species such as trout and small mouth yellow fish.
