Thank you for visiting our website, we hope you find it helpful and decide to come fishing with us. This site has been developed to provide Fly fishing services from a group of very experienced anglers. In our group we have two former England International Fly fishermen, an expert coarse match angler turned fly fishing coach and myself. I have been fishing since the age of five, initially fishing with my brother on the river Thames at Windsor, then growing up, fishing all over the south of England. I took up fly fishing at the age of eighteen and have fished all over the country and abroad. I have fished competitively in the UK and won several major competitions. In 2001 I qualified as an instructor with the Salmon and Trout Association in Trout fishing and Fly Tying and am a full member of the Game Angling Instructors Association and an Angling Trust level 2 lead Coach.
