Casting Demonstrations
As well as being able to tie the perfect fly, any good fly fisherman needs to be able to make the perfect cast. So after spending all your hard earned cash on flytying equipment why not join us outside and view some expert casting demonstrations by none other than Charles Jardine and Mark Bailey
 

Charles needs no introduction. An infamous angler, artist and fly tyer, Charles regularly features in all the angling periodicals, distributing wise words on a variety of subjects from entomology to flydressing and from casting to fly dressing.

Charles has demonstrated his casting skills at many of the largest events in the UK and Worldwide and always gives a polished and informative performance. Come and see if you can learn a few new tricks or even find out what your fly rod is really capable of!

Charles will be demonstrating single handed casting.
