Maybe add something about price and show how cheap it is on an hourly basis i.e you can pay just £20 for 10 hours fishing which is only £2 an hour - much cheaper than most other sports

Ask the guys who fish your loch on a regular basis, for their feedback. Do you allow bait fishing? Do you have a fishing lodge? would it be better to book a session? Do you do a family ticket? Can i hire tackle, buy flys & any other items i might need? Remember your web site . These are just some of the questions i like to know when going to a new fishery. Also the post code for the satnav. Best of luck.

I would leave out the bit about "a little bit of patience", I think it could reinforce negative stereotypes of fishing for newbies and for parents who believe that they or their children "would never have the patience for it"

Not sure about "where nature still occasionally wins" - it may interest those who like a challenge but put off those who want instant gratification and guaranteed success, an apparently increasing segment of the population.

Good luck - hope it goes well

The cost of fishing is missing. Highlight the price of fishing against the cost of some other activities. The rest reads very well. Good luck.
