Guided fishing and instruction
When not tying flies, I’m usually fishing, and I look forward to seeing you on the water. Why not buy your partner some lessons or a guided trip for that special birthday?
I offer: · River craft lessons;
· Small still water fishery lessons in the South of Engand;
· Large reservoir bank fishing lessons at Bewl, Grafham or Farmoor;
· Fully guided trout or grayling trips on chalk streams in the South of England;
· Fully guided reservoir trips to any of the major waters; and
· Corporate days.
The list below describes the packages on offer and the prices, but please don’t hesitate to contact me if there’s something different you would rather do.
