Due to liability concerns of the School District regarding possible injury on the river, the fees of the classroom and river fieldtrips have been separated. However, the cost of the Beginning courses remains the same ($100) regardless of whether or not river trips are attended. Please be assured that the student's safety is the instructor's highest concern and to date there has never been an injury to any student. That having been said, certain risks are inherent to any outdoor activity; such as Fishing. Therefore one needs to understand that the fieldwork associated with this class is, "at your own risk."

Note: The fishing trips are non-guided. The students fish, "on their own," and at, "their own risk." There is no one fee for each fishing trip. No student has paid for any one trip. Nor is any student required to attend any one trip. The trips are volunteer only. No trip, is in anyway associated, with Davis High School or Davis School district. Students fishing, are on their own and are only fishing under the rights purchased by, and afforded by, the states fishing license and are not the responsibility of anyone but the purchaser of the fishing license themselves.

Note: This class is a prerequisite for the Advanced and Extreme classes.

The trips are to Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana. Much of the classroom attention will be spent on the entomology specific to the areas to be fished. The student will tie all the flies to be used during the field work. The fishing experience will focus on other fly fishing destinations outside of Utah, water reading, fly-presentation, strike detection and subtle tricks. Also, landing and releasing techniques will be discussed.
(We'll tie lots of flies!) Note: The advanced class is incredibly fun and sells out quickly. It is reserved for graduates from the Beginning classes. Click here for the Advanced page!

This is an advance fly fishing class for those students that have had all of the beginning and advance courses taught by Mike Navidomskis. The Extreme Class has become the premiere class offered in the fly fish school. It is a travel based class that has become the most popular class taught. The trips are two day fishing excursions to 8-9 of the best fly fishing destinations in North America. The class will teach the student strategies and techniques needed to fish in these various locations.

Here are some of the destinations for the coming 2010 fishing season. Gallatin River in Montana, the Salmon River in Idaho, the Roaring Fork River in Colorado, the Big Horn River in Montana, the Owyhee River in Oregon, the Beaverhead River in Montana, the Grays River In Wyoming, the Big Wood River in Idaho, the Missouri River in Montana, the Ruby River in Montana. These rivers plus another river yet to be named make up the 2010 Extreme Class Fly Fishing line up.

Note:
If you found out about this class thru the Davis County Community School mailer; please take note; due to possible injury during the fieldwork, Davis High cannot list or even talk about the curriculum outside of class. Therefore the fly fishing class is only listed as a $30.00 class in the mailer. The class is divided by the hours of instruction involved. Therefore, the portion of the class time beyond the 18 hours of in classroom instruction has been separated out (these other times are on the river hours and preparation time) of the cost of the class and are not listed as a part of the cost of the class in the mailer. The reason for this is that Davis High School cannot be liable for any injury suffered during any time spent with the class outside of the 18 hours spent in the classroom. (For example, there are three fishing days associated with the class that is not listed in the mailer, because we will not be in the confines of the classroom at Davis High School. We will go fishing 3 times.) The actual cost of the class is $100.00 plus a $10.00 lab fee. Total cost $110.00. (The lab fee will cover the costs of the fly tying materials.) The $110.00 will be collected the first night of class. Note: Due to the possibility for injury while participating in the fielding work out on the river, the student must understand that students can only participate in the three river fishing classes on the condition that they understand that the river portion of the class at their own risk. Davis High, nor any instructor or helper is in no way liable to any injury suffered by any student. All students are participating in the river fishing portion of the class; AT THEIR OWN RISK. This must be understood before any student ventures out to the river with the fly fishing class! -mike

We start in January and we fish all the way to November (we take the month of December off). In the class you will catch lots of large fish, and you will see some of the most beautiful country in the world. Better yet, you will make friends that will last a lifetime. Even if you can only make a few of the scheduled trips the class is still more than a bargain!
