Steve Luethi
Steve started out as a client of Out Fly Fishing Outfitters before proving himself as one of the most innovative and talented fly tiers they'd ever seen. Steve's understanding of fish behavior , baitfish mannerisms, and how different materials will react in the water make his flies not only incredivle to look at but also amazingly efficient.
Once a student himself, he recognises the obstacles and questions that often plaque new anglers. Plus, his skillset, personality, work ethic, and fish-sense make him the perfect guide, which is exactly what he spends his time doing in the Central Alberta area.
Trout fishing can be intimidating.
Where are the fish? What are they eating? How can I get my fly over that rock or current?
This class will teach you how to read and approach water, understand basic entomology and fly selection, learn trick casts to access inaccessible fish, and more.
When we set out to find the best trout anglers we knew, Josh Nugent, Naoto Aoki and the Out Fly Fishing Outfitters Guide Service and Fly Shop crew quickly surfaced to the top of our list. There's something for students of all experience levels and we couldn't be more excited to present this class.
