Guided Fishing and Accommodation in Cornwall
What's it all about?
Cornwall has 200 miles of coastline apparently , that's a lot of shoreline to get to grips with. Without a guide , being in the right place at the right time can be a daunting prospect and also in some circumstances dangerous. A good guide has your safety and well being at the top of the list followed by your enjoyment of the adventure . I use the phrase adventure and mean it! Walking along a stretch of coast path to a special spot and catching fish on a fly rod takes some beating. A regular day would entail a session at first light for a few hours then back to base followed by another session into dusk. We could start a day on the South coast and finish on the North .We will fish estuaries , rocky marks and beaches depending upon the endless variables .The Lizard peninsular offers un crowded fishing ,stunning scenery and peace and solitude and great fishing. For those reasons I spend a lot of time fishing there.

Fly in Safari's
''Let the plane take the strain ''. If you wish you can fly in to Newquay Airport rather than drive down to us . Flights can be as cheap as £1 ! Porthleven is about 40 min's by car from the Airport. We can pick you up and get you fishing within one hour of arrival if need be. Clients who take this option don't need a car as they are taken care of from the moment they arrive until their return journey. Accommodation to suit your needs will be pre arranged for you.
''Hi Austin, just a few line to thank you for your efforts in the last couple of days, I've been out with lots of guides in lots of different places and situations, and I would most certainly put you up there with the top of them, your enthusiasm drive and determination coupled with good sense of hum our made a most memorable couple of days, I know that you let me into special places so I would succeed, and rest assured I will treat that information with the respect that those marks and the fish that swim in them deserve, good luck in the future and thanks once again, look forward to having a cold one with you soon.''

A reasonable casting technique is required if saltwater fly fishing. I have trained to teach casting and will soon be qualified . I'm no master or master teacher but I can get most people double hauling correctly with a few hours practice .
