Professional Certification Track

Upon successful completion of the Professional Certification Track you will get a certificate from the US Outdoor Council stating that you have passed the minimum requirements to qualify as a Certified Professional Fly Fishing Guide.

Have you dreamed of being a professional fly fishing guide?  Successful completion of this program will make it easier to find a job, market yourself, and make more money.  You will have an edge on all other guides because you will be qualified to survive, use first aid and emergency response, and understand the basics of running your own business and dealing with clients and partners. 

Fly Fishing is the fastest growing fishing segment in North America, but the competition for a career as a professional fly fishing guide is immense.  (Who wouldn’t want to fish for a living?)  Our Professional track is designed to put you at the top of this field and give you the knowledge, hands-on experience, and training you need to master this profession and advance your career.

OAU will show you how to start, market, and operate your business.  In the advancing technology/consumer age, you will learn how to network with modern tools and technologies to reach a larger market and make more money.  Learn to find, hook, and reel in loyal repeat customers.

This Professional Fly Fishing Guide Certification Track will provide you with a complete Fly Fishing Guide program. Students will acquire a foundation of knowledge and skills required to become a Professional Fly Fishing Guide, including unique experiences only available within this program and on-hands training from leading professional fishermen.

Fly-fishing legend Lee Wolf said to me one day, “Roger, Fly fishing is the most simple concept to understand, and the most difficult to master.”

One may never master the art of fly fishing, but it’s not about mastery as much as the challenge to become better.  This track is designed to provide you the fundamentals for a lifetime of learning to master the art and skill of fly fishing. 

You will not only learn from the master Lefty Kreh, but also will glean insights as well as essential ecology, aquatic studies and everything necessary for your travel into and out of wilderness areas in pursuit of this rewarding sport.

This complete program includes exciting on-site intensives. For more information, give us a call.
