Fly fishing lessons

Today I had a great time with lovely bunch of guys. Jonathon Green, brother and father came along for a 3 hour beginners fly fishing session. They where about to go off to Scotland for a golf and fly fishing trip. Although they are accomplished golfers they had never picked up a fly rod before. They are going to fish the river Tay and so we spent some time on the river Adur. Although it does not have salmon or brown trout as in Scotland it is an ideal river to learn and practice ones casting and river craft skills.

Well done guys and tight lines. Howie

A Lovely October day at Duncton

Duncton Oct 16 006

Just back from a great day at Duncton Mill Fishery. With a fine bag of Rainbows. If any would be fly fishers want a great day out at an outstanding trout fishery then please get in touch. With 4,clear, spring feed lakes to stalk and roam around this is an outstanding venue in West Sussex managed by Martin Fleetwood. No I’m not getting paid to promote this fishery. I just want to share it with any learners requiring guidance and hopefully get involved with catching a trout or two. The condition and feistyness of his fish are to be admired. Anyone interested in a guided day out please contact me.
