CASTING
INSTRUCTION AT
CLINCH RIVER CHAPTER TROUT UNLIMITED
MAY 2004 MEETING
Linda Good, a graduate of The Wulff School of Fly Fishing,
returned to lead the program for the May, 2004 Clinch River Chapter Trout Unlimited
meeting. Linda teaches monthly casting clinics for The Fly Shop of Tennessee in
Johnson City and for a private fly fishing club on the Linville River in North
Carolina. For more about Linda, visit

The program included a few casting "basics" and individual suggestions for
improving your casting accuracy and distance. Members and friends brought
their favorite
rig and joined the fun. Casting took place on the grassy field at the Norris Dam
parking lot (at the base of the dam near the entrance to the powerhouse).
All chapter meetings are open to the public.
Check out some of the photos:
