The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission will offer a special fly-fishing weekend for women through the Becoming an Outdoors-Woman program on March 9-11 in the mountains.

Activities will be held at the Pisgah Center for Wildlife Education and Davidson River Campground, south of Asheville, near Brevard in Transylvania County. The registration fee is $125, with partial scholarships available.

Fly-fishing equipment will be provided, but participants can bring their own gear.
