Next week I will be in Harrogate for a couple of days with my wife celebrating our 40th Anniversary. She is going to have one of those half day Spa/beauty treatments (not that she needs it as she is a doll!) on the 17th so I am looking to find an instructor for a couple of hours in the afternoon close by. I don't want to have to travel too far so close by would be handy.

Does anyone have a contact in Harrogate for tuition, or know of any fisheries which may include tuition?

Many thanks

A couple more you might like to consider.

There's an Orvis shop in Harrogate. You could contact them, they might have links with local instructors.

Thanks you all very much for your input -I will follow up on the suggestions and hopefully,learn a little bit more whilst she who must be obeyed is NOT steering the boat!!

Thank all
