AnglerUniversity.com is all about simplifying and de-mystifying a sport that, for too long now, has been considered both difficult and expensive. We’ve combined easy to understand online lessons with a gear shop that stocks affordable complete Open&Fish™ fly-fishing packages, Angler University brand fly rods, and other gear.

Our Open&Fish™ fly-fishing packages include a 2 pc graphite fly rod , a fly reel (pre-loaded with fly line, backing and leader – all knots tied by us!), the flies you’ll need to get started in your area, and something you won’t find anywhere else – easy to understand online lessons with clear illustrations, animations and video!

Angler University lessons are free to all web surfers! Our online lessons include: Selecting a Location, Gear, Casting, Knot Tying, Flies, and Common Sense Manners. All lessons are brief and to the point – containing just enough info for you to get out there and fish – no Latin lessons, no fly-fishing textbooks. Now it is possible to get on the water right away. Get out and fish!

About the Founders:

John and Margie Incantalupo are avid flyfishers.

John sat on the Board of Directors of his local NJ Trout Unlimited Chapter, taught fly casting at the NJ School of Conservation, and formed a Watershed Partnership for a local watershed in NJ. He was first taught to cast (quite accidentaly) by author and national casting champion Floyd Franke, and has taken more formal lessons wit Ed Jaworowski, famous author and fly caster.

Margaret is a high school educator with a penchant for saltwater fly fishing, Florida waters being her specialty. Margaret learned her casting skills with Ed Jaworowski as well. When she is not actively being chased from the water by sharks (John's fault!), she casts a very nice line to bonefish, snook and jack crevalle in the many places she likes to fish together with John.
