Default Flyfishing Lesson in the North East

Hi all,

This is my first post (so don't roast me if I mess up!). I am also brand new to Fly Fishing and I am trying to find someone to give me a lesson (not free of course).

I am based in Newcastle upon Tyne so if anyone knows anyone who gives Fly Fishing lessons in the North East I would be really grateful if you could pass their contact details to me.

Thanks so much.
