CASTING TUITION

Want to improve your casting?

Casting tuition is available on a one-to-one or one-to-two basis. The lesson is tailored to your needs, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced angler seeking to correct faults. If you have never tried fly fishing before, you can learn the basic casting techniques in just a few hours.

After your session, you’ll be a competent caster with a solid understanding of all the techniques necessary to start fishing independently. I will customise your lesson to suit your specific requirements. Whether it’s just the basic cast or distance casting, your lesson will cover it (and more) and be delivered in a relaxed and enjoyable manner.

All lessons are on an hourly basis and can be taken at a venue of your own choice.

BANK FISHING

RIVER FISHNG

Why not spend a day with me on one of the stunning Welsh rivers? I can be your guide for Trout and Grayling on the River Severn, River Wye, River Dee, and trout only on the River Usk, which offer fantastic fishing in both summer and winter.

The day would cover all casts needed to effectively fish for these elusive fish:

  • Reach mend
  • Aerial mend
  • Tuck cast
  • Cut cast
  • Snake roll…and loads more!

 

Also learn:

  • French leader  
  • CZ nymphing using the new revolutionary braid system
  • Duo, Trio and Quado New Zealand style of fishing
  • Dry fly fishing
  • Wet fly

If you believe that fishing a large reservoir is beyond your reach or feel intimidated by such a vast expanse of water, then why not allow me to show you the ins and outs of boat fishing.

I will cover all the tactics you need to tackle any reservoir, from surface fishing to fast sink line methods. You will learn all the modern techniques that are at the forefront of this sport.

As a competitive angler, I keep my finger on the pulse – and I am more than happy to share my wealth of knowledge. The only downside is that you might suffer from information overload!

Of course, many fishing guides exist in this country, but I am unique in being able to correct any casting faults you might have and teach you everything you need to know about reservoir fishing.
