The Rhode Island School of Fly Fishing is happy to announce that we have entered into an agreement with the Frosty Drew Nature Center and Observatory in Charlestown, RI as the location for one of our upcoming specialty programs, "The Rhode Island Cinder Worm Hatch/ Flats Fishing School."
Frosty Drew is an ideal location to teach anglers about fly fishing and fly casting in salt water and to introduce them to one of the most exciting striped bass fisheries in the northeast... what we affectionately refer to as "The Worm Hatch". The facility is located within Ninigret Park, just a mile from public foot, canoe and kayak access to Ninigret Pond, one of the most beautiful saltwater estuaries in Rhode Island.
The Frosty Drew facility provides expansive areas to learn fly casting on grass and fresh water. Their conference center is large enough for groups of 20 students in a wonderful meeting room/theatre, complete with an overhead LCD projector, pull down projection screen, whiteboards, large tables and chairs, a kitchen, bathroom facilities, and plenty of parking.
As with all our programs, RISFF will provide top-shelf training by a staff who as individuals and guides have been fly fishing in Ninigret and other Rhode Island salt ponds for 20+ years, more experience in fishing the worm hatch and the salt pond flats than anyone else.
