Fishing Tuition
TUITION RECOMMENDATIONS
I hadn't fly fished before and was seeking something more
than just basic tuition in an effort to gain a good grounding
in as many aspects of the sport as I could. To this end I
elected to undertake the four day course offered by Craig and
Marlene which proved ideal. The tuition is well structured and
includes a comprehensive guide to all aspects of fly fishing
extending beyond the necessary casting, line setup, river and stream
craft instruction to such aspects as to what to look for amongst the
vast array of fly fishing tackle available to those intending to
purchase their own equipment.
Tuition is at a relaxed pace with plenty of time for questions,
practise along the way and is tailored to suite one's
individual pace. The latter part of the four day
tuition course focussed on actually catching and landing
trout during which time I was able to land a number of fine rainbows.
I would recommend this tuition course to anyone wanting a
sound understanding of fly fishing whilst enjoying the guiding
couple's homely accommodation and fine kiwi hospitality.

With Marlene I had a wonderful fishing day where she gave
me intensive tuition howto use a fly fishing rod and how
to catch a fish. It was a great experience to be tought
by a women in such a professional way. As it was my
third time (ever) fishing in NZ, I had to learn being
patient and not giving up at once if something doesn´t
work out immediately. On the base of many years experience
in fly fishing and guiding Marlene obtained a big human
knowledge and her sensitiveness and sense of humor made
every minute to a successful and happy time at the river.
I caught my first fish with a fly rod!
Thank you for this unforgetable day.

Don't freak out!! Consider tuition as gaining a new skill,
a progression to updating your existing skills.

fly fishing from basic set up of equipement
to more advanced techniques. Frequent river
