hahaha. It sounds brutal, but I consider myself to be a very seasoned fly-fisherman... I've never taken lessons and I outfish people on my flyrod almost every trip out..Any guess why? Experience... I have fished most situations, I have learned to read the water, I have learned to present my flies just right, and I could place a fly on the tip of your nose if I wanted to. Sure, it took a while (haha) but what I have learnt in the first few years was detrimental to my skill level now...

This being said though... I don't blame people for taking lessons. I just never had the money to drop on stuff like that, and I still don't. Furthermore, it probably will save you a ton of frustration if you do get some guidance.
