Casting Instructor Seminar
So You Want To Be a CI
Saturday, April 14, 2018, 09:00 - 14:00
Southwest Council
Contact Eric Callow, Casting Director, SWCFFI at casting@swcffi.org or (818) 219-2276
Many casters who have reached the intermediate or advanced skill level find themselves asking two questions:
-
How can I continue to improve my casting skills?
-
How can I share my passion for casting and fly fishing with others?
The Certified Casting Instructor program of Fly Fishers International answers both by providing a thoughtfully structured syllabus of casting skills to be mastered with an equally important emphasis on teaching technique and a thorough grounding in casting theory. As such, it provides a road map for becoming the caster we want to be and a teacher who can effectively share their skills with others.
Going back to the early 1990’s, the Certified Casting Instructor program was conceived as a way to provide both consistency and a higher standard in teaching others how to fly cast. Today, over fifty instructors who are active in the Southwest Council of the FFI have earned the CCI or Master Casting Instructor title. This clinic will provide a window on how you could become one of them by:
-
Providing hands on demonstration and practice in each of the required casting skills.
-
Highlighting study sources needed to become a knowledgeable teacher.
-
Explaining the role of a mentor and how to find one.
Cost: $50.00 FFI members, $60.00 non-members. Register online at www.swcffi.org.
