Tide Times

THE FOLLOWING IS IN RED TYPE TO STRESS IT'S IMPORTANCE

Take a minute on my FAQ page as this will help your and my planning.

It is always preferable that the fisherman/woman make contact with me rather than an intermediary.

PLEASE BE OPEN AND REALISTIC ABOUT YOUR FLY-FISHING LEVEL, I'VE NO PROBLEM GUIDING BEGINNERS OR IMPROVING FLYFISHERS BUT DO LET ME KNOW YOUR SKILL LEVEL AS THIS HELPS DECIDE LOCATIONS WE USE AS WELL AS DURATION OF YOUR DAY.

Generally, IF YOU'VE DONE 1- 20 FULL DAYS + INSTRUCTN = NOVICE, 20-50 FULL DAYS = IMPROVER, 50-100 FULL DAYS = EXPERIENCED, 100+FULL DAYS = VERY EXPERIENCED

In high summer (July/Aug) water levels get low, rivers get weeded and fly-fishing is challenging even for the best, so it might be preferable to opt for a half-day rather than full day session unless one is a master in upstream presentation of dry-fly or nymph. I use a tidal stretch of the river Maigue to overcome low water levels by fishing the ebb tide, thus avoiding cancellations. Starting times are subject to tide times however.
