Learn to fish with our team of professionally qualified and licensed angling coaches. All bait, equipment, permits and licence are provided, saving you the cost of buying an Enrivonment Agency daily rod licence. You’ll be taught the basics of fishing tackle, how to correctly hold a pole, bait the hook, recognise bites, land and unhook fish and much more. We’ll also advise on best value for equipment to help you get started on your own and point you in the direction of a suitable local club or academy when you are ready for it. All you need to do now is to book in and turn up on time on the day.
