Outstanding instructor and very personable..,

Audrey is an outstanding instructor and very personable. She does a fabulous job of introducing fly casting to a group of beginners and seasoned fishers alike.

why working with at first cast is different

Let’s focus on what’s important – I’m committed to support your growth and share with you everything I learn along the way.

Sometimes life casts us fun and wonderful experiences, and sometimes it throws major snags. We all experience life differently.

We all need to learn and grow from the good and the hard in our own unique ways. I take the leadership experience I’ve gained and what fly fishing has shown me to provide an experience just for you for wherever you’re at in life.

I’ve guided, taught, coached and realized it’s time to focus more intensely on the learning, and growth that comes from fly fishing.

I embody patience and understanding.

Let’s not forget that no one’s perfect, including me. I demonstrate and create an environment of understanding and patience. We all need that.

Sometimes we put too much pressure on ourselves. We don’t need to feel extra pressure from anyone else.

The experience is about you, and my goal is to facilitate a comfortable place to connect, to break through barriers, and grow in an environment of kindness where you’ll always feel included.

I’m 100% committed to your success.

I absolutely love what I do. It’s what energizes me.

I promise to provide you the best experience possible and continue to share with my clients what will be useful to them onward and upward! I am also committed to being open minded. It’s important to me to maintain a connection.

I will always be here for you or those you lead in life.

I had my first lesson with Audrey..

Yesterday, I had my first lesson from Audrey and I discovered that I needed more help and guidance than I thought I did.

Audrey has a very gentle and quiet method of teaching, which I found to be refreshing and effective.

After much practice, I hope to continue to learn with more lessons. Thank you, Audrey.
