The season is
well underway and my guests have already slipped their nets
under more than a few fish to say the least. 14 days on
the water provided some memorable moments and although the
weather has not always been kind, who cares when the fish are
biting!

Ladies
really are taking to fly fishing in a big way these
days and on many occasions, showing the men the way to
go! This is Alex Taylor who came all the way
from the U.S.A. with her husband Patrick for a short break in the U.K. and
managed to cram in a day of fishing too. Nick
Hart Fly Fishing provided them with a pick up / drop
off service from the train station, organized accommodation
in a comfortable inn and guided fishing on our
exclusive stretch or the river Bray.
|
| It
was cold, the fishing was hard and it was my very
first outing with new guide, Pete Tyjas, more about
him in April. But, success was the order of the
day and Alex was over the moon with this Salmon Smolt
caught while fishing a nymph upstream and returned
carefully to make the long journey to the ocean.

Without
doubt one of the best looking Rainbows I have landed
for a guest in recent years. Check out that
tail!

Mike
Roberts took a break from his champagne making
business to try out fly fishing for 3 days. He
received the trip as a gift voucher and on his final
session excelled himself by latching into the
beautifully conditioned 4lb over wintered Rainbow
Trout on Clatworthy reservoir in Somerset. And,
on a dry fly! Look out for my article on this
venue coming soon in Trout Fisherman magazine.

What
our guests say ...
The
day was one of the most relaxing and enjoyable that I can remember in
a long time - a superb antidote to the stresses of the office and
probably the best Christmas present I have ever had.

Davy, Devon, June 2003
Your
enthusiasm for fishing is so infectious and the way in which you
instruct
so encouraging, it breaks down a lot of the 'mystique' that sometimes
appears to surround fly fishing.

Lambert, London 2003
We
are back home now. With three full days of work done. I am wishing
that I was fishing once again. Alex and I had such a great time
with you and Pete. We would like to have had it last longer. Next time
I will catch the Salmon.
