Fly Fishing
Basics at Darke County Parks
Join Phill Hollinger, Darke County Parks’ fly fishing expert, on
Saturday, June 18th at 1pm at the Shawnee Prairie Preserve Nature
Center to learn the basics of fly fishing. Participants will discuss
technique, flies (where and when to use them), where to fly fish
locally, and more. After covering the basics, students will look into
other supplies one may need, or desire, to make this sport their own.
Phill has been fly fishing since 2002 when a friend got him “hooked”.
Since then, he has fly fished in Colorado, Tennessee, Michigan,
Wyoming, Montana, Washington, Alaska, and Ohio. One of Phill’s favorite
aspects of the sport is the scenery. Space is very limited due to
supplies, so sign up soon! A $5 fee for materials will be charged for
this program, and preregistration is required.
For questions about this program or any other program offered by the
Darke County Parks or to register for Fly Fishing Basics, please stop
by the nature center, or call (937) 548-0165.
