Stillwater Dry Fly Fishing
Martin is known throughout the country for his skill
as a Stillwater dry fly angler. He was at the forefront
of much of the development in this branch of the sport.
If you have struggled to catch the trout when they
are rising all around you, or if you want to experience
the thrill of casting and catching fish that are visible,
then why not book a day afloat at Chew Valley with
Martin.
- A full explanation of the technique involved.
- The tackle required for this style of fishing
will be provided if required.
- Martin himself ties all the flies, and clients
will be free to use them during the session, and
may purchase more from Martin if required.
- Leader construction is explained clearly.
- Casting techniques (which are quite different
from nymph fishing) are explained in detail.
- On full day trips, a full cooked meal is provided
with wine or beer to accompany.
The Stillwater dry fly trips are Martin's most heavily
booked. He is regularly asked to give talks on the
subject, and has a long list of clients for whom he
ties the special flies. Full day or half-day packages
can be provided.
