This three-day field class at UC Berkeley's - Sagehen Creek Field Station north of Truckee is a fishing trip with a purpose. The instructor and guest speakers focus on the role that insects play in the lives of Sierra trout, what artficial flies represent to trout, how their natural counterparts are produced, where they live, how they become available as food, and how to convince trout and other game fish that you are giving them food. Streamside lectures cover elements of stream ecology, explaining in everyday terms how habitat is maintained, how fish foods are produced and why fish behave the way they do. A visit to the underwater observation tank is included. The course features demonstrations of fly-fishing techniques on a variety of neighboring streatms, with free time scheduled for fishning. Participants are housed in the Sagehen Creek facilities.
