Default Casting Instructor Newport / Cardiff East

Hi gents, I've been out a couple of times this season and my casting is laughable at the moment. I'm looking for any recomendations for a good instructor who would be willing to do lessons weekday evenings after work.

Any recommendations greatfully appreciated.

Cheers - Steve

Hey Steve!

I been having lessons recently with a AAPGAI Advanced instructor called Lee Watts he is from the Neath area, he takes his clients to a private beat on the river Neath for lessons, but i'm sure he would meet you elsewhere if you needed. He's really patient and my casting has improved a lot after just a few lessons!

His website is:

Double Haul Cymru :: Fly Fishing Tuition

his e-mail address is:

info@doublehaul.co.uk

And his mobile number is:

Try Kim Tribe at kim@flyfishingwales.com he is an Orvis Pro guide and although also based in Neath guides on the Wye and Usk systems.

He also posts on here as kim.tribe.flyfishingwales so you could try a PM as well.
