One of my all time favourite forms of fishing is the pursuit of carp upon the fly. This is an area in which I have had considerable experience and a great deal of success, one of my best single sessions to date producing twenty four carp, including eight ghosties. Many of these were into double figures and gave a cracking acccount of themselves on the tackle that I like to use.

If you haven't yet tried fly fishing for carp, then a guided session after them might be an experience that you will never forget - albeit hopefully for the right reasons! Various writers have described them as the British equivalent of bonefish and I don't think that they are far wrong! Certainly the first few that I had came as a bit of a wake up call, with some of the carp motoring the length of the lake and fighting like tigers all the way to the net. It can be a great deal of fun and something that I would recommend all people passionate about fly fishing should try for themselves.

As an avid camper, I can also put you in contact with some of the camping and touring sites that have gone to great trouble to provide excellent fishing on site. Just give me a call, especially if you are wanting to come down to the South West for a holiday!
