This Fantastic competition boasts prestige and a fabulous prize structure as well as a goody bag for every competitor containing, amongst many other things, a fly line worth more than the entry fee. If you would like the chance to fish in this excellent, friendly competition here at Carsington Water please email: john@johnhorsey.co.uk for more details and an entry form and send it in, along with your entry fee, to Carsington Water Fishery Lodge, Ashbourne, Derbyshire, DE6 1ST
Our flyfishing courses will be run on the first Saturday of April, May, June, July, August and September. There are two courses available:
Introduction to Fishing with a Fly
An opportunity to learn the basics of Flyfishing, the course covers basic casting, knots and entomology. All equipment and a qualified instructor will be provided for the course. After you have learned how to throw a line you can fish from the bank for the rest of the day (for which you must have an EA rod licence and your own tackle). Meet at the Fishery Lodge at 10am prompt to finish at approx. 1pm. BOOKING ESSENTIAL as places are limited.
Please ring or call into the fishery lodge 01629 540 769. Cost £20.00 per person. Please pay on the day at the Watersports Centre.
Improvers Fly Fishing Course
Now you have learned to cast a fly why not take it one step further and learn to fish from a boat. On this course you will learn boat handling skills, reading the water, fishing on the drift with a drogue, fishing tactics and fly selection as well as further pointers on your casting. All equipment, boat hire and a qualified instructor will be provided for the course.

- Don’t post anything that makes it easy for strangers to find you (e.g. location of home, cafes, clubs etc)
- People aren't always who they say they are.
- Be careful about adding people you don’t actually know to your friends list.
- It's great to make new MyFlyBox friends from all over, but avoid actually meeting people whom you do not already know.
- If you decide to meet someone you’ve engaged with on MyFlyBox, tell your parents or relatives first, meet in a public place and bring a trusted adult friend with you.
- It's easy to think that only people you know are looking at your MyFlyBox page, but remember that everyone can see it.
