If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s worth working on your cast… it is. Maxine McCormick knows the difference between a good day and a story-worthy one often comes down to a single, well-placed fly.
Every extra foot of distance, every cleaner loop, every softer presentation means your fly lands before the fish knows you’re there… not after you’ve spooked it.
A better cast doesn’t just look good—it puts you where the fish are. 🎯
Join Maxine and fellow casters at the Washington FFI Fly Casting Fair April 19 to put you on the path to better days on the water. Maxine’s accuracy demonstration is open to all and begins at noon. Classes for casters of all skill levels throughout the day. Follow this link for details and registration. https://www.tickettailor.com/events/washingtonflyfishersinternational/1973309

Accurate fly casting isn’t about throwing harder—it’s about throwing smarter.
A tighter loop. A calmer stroke. One deliberate cast instead of five noisy ones. Join Washington FFI on April 19 at Pickering Barn Park in Issaquah to learn how. And don’t miss the noon accuracy talk by World Casting Champion Maxine McCormick. Because the best cast isn’t the longest—it’s the one that lands exactly where you meant it to.

Most people quit fly fishing not because they don’t love it, but because they don’t get good enough fast enough. FFI's Fly Casting Fair helps solve that. It gives anglers—whether you’re touching a fly rod for the first time or chasing perfection after decades on the water—a structured path to competence. Join us Apirl 19 at Pickering Barn Park in Issaquah. Go to WSFFI.ORG for details and registration.
