We met Jonathan outside his home in a relaxed atmosphere and after a short introduction we were able to start the experience. Fly fishing, as we learned, is mostly about technique and as I never had the chance before we started with the basics. Casting properly is a real challenge but Jonathan was patient and helped me understand how to do it best. After some practice we went to a nearby lake to test the newly learned skills! Just fyi: if you’re offered boots, take them! Some lakes more than others require a bit of wandering through wetlands and it might indeed be helpful. Once we arrived at the lake it was windy so it was a challenge to properly cast but after a few attempts I got the hang of it. We saw a lot of trout leaping that day and we tried various flies but due to the weather conditions we did not catch well. However, it was a brilliant experience and it was a lot of fun fishing with Jonathan! Philip – August 2019
“For total beginners he made it a fun and interesting experience.”
We had never fished before, let alone tried fly fishing. Jonathan was very patient with us and took us on a real adventure. We both certainly came away feeling like we could cast…. maybe only one in 10 attempts though! For total beginners he made it a fun and interesting experience. Would definitely recommend.

“…tailored the fishing trip exactly as we’d hoped. “
Jonathan is a true local, who listened to our requirements and tailored the fishing trip exactly as we’d hoped. He’s a great guy, the fishing was superb and we’d recommend him to anyone visiting the area who wants a unique experience. Nothing was too much trouble and he took the booking at short notice, with great communication. Julia – June 2019
