Courses from 'Casting For Gold'

Venues and Species

Because of capricious weather, we at Casting for Gold like to make final decisions in the last few days before your trip. John will decide where our best chances lie and will phone to discuss targets and tactics three or four days before you arrive. This will give you time to sort specific gear and baits, flies or lures. Remember, this is your trip and everything will be up for discussion and agreement.

In general, the summer and autumn months will see fishing on the estate lakes for tench, rudd and carp. There will be the possibility of summer barbel, chub and roach from the rivers and perhaps mullet, sea trout or sea bass from the estuaries and shorelines. We also have some exclusive river and lake trout fishing for those wanting to cast a fly or to learn the art.

The late autumn and winter will still feature the estate lakes for marvellous pike and perch fishing but the rivers will come into their own for big chub and roach.

Accommodation will either be on a country estate, in a sixteenth-century farmhouse bed and breakfast, or at a delightful rural restaurant / hotel.
