Guided Fishing and Accommodation in Cornwall
Grab a bag, throw a toothbrush in it , come down and fish with me. Let me worry about everything else !
I first started to take clients and guests bass fishing in Cornwall in 2005.We have landed thousands of bass over the years but each winter I still eagerly await the forthcoming season. I have always regarded it as an honour to share my knowledge of the sport and the coastline with those who have I have fished along side . I fish from the shoreline a kayak and also from my 17 foot Centre Consul Skiff. I fly fish , fish lures into the surf, soft plastics over the boulders. Surface Poppers will always be high on my hit list !
I have written various bass fishing articles for magazines over the years and fly fished for Bass on SKY TV.
Some of my guests stay in expensive hotels and some pitch a tent at the local campsite, We can now offer bed and Breakfast at our Spacious home . The spectrum of backgrounds of the people I fish with never fails to surprise me . The daily experience of guiding for bass is as fresh today as it was back in 2005.
