The Basics of Fly Fishing with the "River Girl" Kelly McCoy

In this Virtual Scholars & Scones talk, Kelly McCoy, Owner and operator of RiverGirl Fishing Company will teach us how to learn the art of fly fishing without breaking the bank! Kelly will show us how she teaches people to fly fish through her business from a historic train depot in Todd, NC. ABOUT THE SPEAKER Kelly McCoy is a fisheries biologist by training and a fly fishing guide by trade. Originally from Hokes Bluff, Alabama Kelly earned a Fisheries Science Degree from Mississippi State University where she also earned her nickname “River Girl.” After graduating from Mississippi State she went on to work in Florida as a marine biologist. Then she and her wife vacationed up to the New River two years in a row and made a plan to move up here. What started out as tying flies in the upstairs of the Todd Mercantile Bakery has grown into much more.
