I am a very enthusiastic fly tyer and designer. To catch a trout on a fly that you have lovingly tied yourself is a special experience and one that you will want to repeat.
Instruction in fly tying can be part of your fishing day or is frequently added at the end of a session in the evening. If you are staying with us it can be in your cottage or in one of the local public houses.

The Devon County Show was a great success again this year and the sun shone on all three days. We were kept very busy casting and demonstrating fly tying throughout the show . Making many new friends, adults and children, eager to give fly fishing a try.
