Fly-Fishing School

Hosted by Frost Valley YMCA's Straus Center, the Fly Fishing School is located in pristine forests at the base of Slide Mountain, where meadows, ponds, cascading waterfalls, and world renowned trout streams make this one of the most scenic facilities in the country.  This renovated turn of the century estate features tastefully furnished rooms and outstanding wellness cuisine.

The Program

With over six miles of private waterways, Frost Valley sits right in the center of the Catskills "Charmed Circle" of fly-fishing.  This historic water is where fly fishing began.

Instructor, Tony Bonavist holds a degree in fisheries biology from the University of Montana at Missoula.  For over 25 years he worked as a fisheries biologist for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.  Tony has also worked as an instructer at several fly-fishing schools in New York, including the Wulff School of Fly Fishing.
