GuidedTrips

Friday, December 9th, 2011

With Christmas just round the corner, lots of you have been e-mailing to enquire about guided trips in 2012. Matt has decided to do very few in the coming year but he has committed to doing a Matt Hayes academy at Furnace Mill fishery. There are three days, two have sold out and another has just been added. Places cost £200.00
If you want one to one stuff, Matt is doing some pike on the fly and trout fly fishing days in the spring and some barbel days in the autumn.
You can enquire by going to the ‘contact us’ section of the site. Please note that one to one days with Matt cost £800.00
Please note that Matt is currently receiving round fifty requests a week to take or join people on free fishing trips. He cannot and does not do it. Matt uses this time to support Starlight children’s charity or Dreamstore. Please do not use the contact us section to send Matt fishing questions – he receives so many that he does not answer them.
