Payment

Please Note . If you are a member of one of the following organisations I am happy to provide my time on an expenses only basis (and there may of course be no expenses) : Peak Forest Anglers (PFAC), Derwent Fly Fishers (DFFC).

To give to the Wild Trout Trust. Go on to the WTT web site. Go to the SHOP page and make a one off donation. https://www.wildtrout.org/shop This can attract gift aid if you are a tax payer. Please then send the WTT an email (office@wildtrout.org) to let them know why you have made the donation and copy it to me.

How much should you give?

Please donate an amount which is equivalent to my professional fees as below:

1 hour : £45.00 single / £60 for 2 people

2 hours : £75.00 single / £100 for 2 people

Half a day (up to 4 hours) : £125.00 single / £160.00 for 2 people

Whole day : £240.00 single / £300 for 2 people

If I need to travel more than 10 miles for your lesson I ask 45p per mile towards travel expenses.

If you need to borrow tackle please let me know if you are Left handed.

Guiding costs will depend on the charges for the water and need to be individually costed according to your needs, once you have contacted me.

If you want instruction on water, the owner of the water is likely to make a charge for this which you will need to pay. Fishing lakes are used to this. You might then arrange to go on to fish after the session.

If you would like me to arrange a site for your lesson you will be responsible for the site owners charge.
