testimonials

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Alwyn is a fantastic fishing coach — clear, patient, and super knowledgeable. I went from clueless to catching fish in no time. Highly recommend!”

- Derek W, Solicitor

  • “As a retired successful secondary school Chemistry teacher with over 30 years service and a well established angling writer, I felt compelled to write this unsolicited testimonial. I have fished with and observed Alwyn with some of his clients over several years. I am impressed with his top class angling skills but more importantly the way he passed on his skills. The tutoring was always well thought out and well delivered being constructed to meet the individual’s needs.

  • With younger anglers his pastoral work was top class which I have seen seldom equaled in schools. I worked alongside Alwyn when we both volunteered to help out some severely disabled young anglers who were wheelchair users. I was struck with his competence, encouragement and the ease he brought out the best in these young anglers. The lads in his care really enjoyed themselves and later I was not surprised to hear from the Care Home that with his help angling was now the most popular activity with the young people of both sexes in her care. I therefore recommend without any reservations Alwyn to you for all your instruction"
