We are proud of the facilities that our fly fishing school is able to offer.

People are now realising the value of using a fly fishing guide for the day. At the Devon School of Fly Fishing we ensure that our guides are on the water all of the time so that they are in “tune” with what is going on and the mood of the river.

If you are on a river fly fishing in Devon it means that you will probably be fishing for wild brown trout. This is certainly the case on the River Taw where no stocking of fish takes place.

We are often asked by our guests what sort of tackle do they need to bring when they come down to fish with us.

Devon can boast a good pedigree when it comes to the variety of fly fishing rivers that it can offer

The River Taw, along with the other major rivers of the Westcountry such as the Tamar, Torridge and Exe, is one of the great spots to fly fish for wild brown trout, sea trout and also salmon

Down here in Devon there are times when we are fishing and often think no matter what we cast at the fish they don’t seem to want it

The Fox and Hounds can truely claim a fly fishing heritage dating back to the 1950’s.

Devon is lucky in that it has healthy runs of sea trout on a large majority of its rivers. The sea trout season really gets under way from mid May when the larger fish enter the rivers.
